Canoe & Kayak magazine called Verlen Kruger “arguably the world's greatest canoeist!” An amazing story of life, death and adventure, with more than 250 photos, you will learn of a man who set near-impossible goals, but was willing to pay the price of success. Verlen said “To stretch your horizons will sometimes mean reaching beyond that which seems reasonable.” This is the story of that stretch, covering fifty states, two continents, four oceans and many of the major rivers of North and South America by canoe.

Facts about Verlen:
# never sat in a canoe until age 41

# the only man who paddled more than four times the distance around the earth

# held 11 world records of paddling feats

# broke his own record for the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico at age 78

# still holds the record with his partner for paddling up the Grand Canyon of the
Colorado River and upstream on the Mississippi

Verlen has taught so many that extraordinary things can be accomplished by ordinary people if they simply believe “all things are possible.” This humble, intelligent, tenacious man who loved butterflies endeared himself to so many by the way he lived his life and experienced his driven adventures. A must-have biography of a man held in reverence by many canoeists, both nationally and internationally.
