From one of Outside magazines Literary AllStars comes the thrilling true tale of the fastest boat ride ever through the Grand Canyon, atop the legendary Colorado River flood of 1983.In the spring of 1983, massive flooding along the length of the Colorado River confronted a team of engineers at the Glen Canyon Dam with an unprecedented emergency that may have resulted in the most catastrophic dam failure in history. In the midst of this crisis, the decision to launch a small wooden dory named The Emerald Mile at the head of the Grand Canyon, just fifteen miles downstream from the Glen Canyon Dam, seemed not just odd, but downright suicidal.The Emerald Mile, at one time slated to be destroyed, was rescued and brought back to life by Kenton Grua, the man at the oars, who intended to use this flood as a kind of hydraulic slingshot. The goal was to nail the alltime record for the fastest boat ever propelledby oar, by motor, or by the grace of God himselfthrough the heart of the Grand Canyon atop the Colorado River from Lees Ferry to Lake Mead. Did he survive? Just barely. Now, this remarkable, epic feat unfolds here, in The Emerald Mile.

I was blown away by the detail in The Emerald Mile. The descriptions of the rapids and the historical context made it a compelling read. I got it as a gift for my husband, who loves kayaking, and he couldn't put it down. A fantastic addition to any adventure enthusiast's library!
