Algonquin Park: the name conjures up images of a vast network of outdoor escape routes - canoeable lakes and rivers and hiking trails for the adventurous, unspoiled wilderness settings for weekend visitors - all within reach of the city dwellers.
This book is an open invitation to explore Ontario's oldest provincial park with Joanne Kates, who was privileged to have grown up in this enchanted world of woods and water. She learned to paddle a canoe here almost as soon as she could walk and now offers a guided tour of her favorite canoe routes on the 1600-kilometer network of waterways.
