Description

Three Men in Two Canoes tells the remarkable story of an epic 180-mile canoeing adventure undertaken by three college friends in 1967. With virtually no experience, they navigated leaking, canvas-covered kayaks through challenging terrain.

Their journey took them down the River Wye, across the Severn Estuary at its highest tide, along the Gloucester Ship Canal, up the River Severn and finally via canal to their destination in the Midlands. This was a historic achievement, marking the first time the journey had been completed.

Recorded by the friends themselves, this book chronicles their unique 12-day adventure and enduring 50-year friendship. A testament to perseverance and determination, Three Men in Two Canoes remains an extraordinary account of one of the most remarkable canoeing journeys ever undertaken.
