Dalla quarta di copertina

The World's Wildest Rivers: White Water captures in magnificent photographs the story of these great rivers, and presents a vivid account of those whitewater pioneers who have dared tackle unpredictable rapids, cataracts and waterfalls.

Aimed not only at those who like to test the boundaries of whitewater themselves and others who raft simply for relaxation, this book also allows readers to enjoy the exhilaration and excitement of white water from the comfort of their armchair.
