THE MEADOWLANDS: WILDERNESS ADVENTURES AT THE EDGE OF A CITY ReviewBeing an avid kayaker, I've often wondered what it would be like to paddle the swampy marshlands of the Meadowlands. Riding on the NJ Turnpike, and amidst the backdrop of the Manahttan Skyline, the Meadowlands looks like an appealing natural area to paddle (..at least from a paddler's perspective). Although the area is historically notorious for being one of the most polluted in the state, I've often seen many wading birds feeding in the area so I figured "how bad could it be?"
Robert Sullivan answers this question in an entertaining account of his canoe expeditions in this area. His trek through the muck and mire lead him on searches for Jimmy Hoffa's body and other 'treasures'while also detailing the local history of the area and the mob related lore of the garbage and solid waste disposal industry. His graphic and detailed accounts of the garbage that have been dumped in the area would make any paddler seriously consider whether they should paddle it. At the same time, Sullivan has also created a curiosity which has motivated more people than ever before to pick up a paddle and check it out.
Beyond the humorous account of his adventure, this book is an easy read that makes us more aware of the vast natural area we have abused and taken for granted. Hopefully it will inspire people to assist restorative and preservation efforts of this area of great potential, preventing it from becoming a continued dumpsite or concrete jungle.THE MEADOWLANDS: WILDERNESS ADVENTURES AT THE EDGE OF A CITY Overview

Streamer Fly Tying & Fishing ReviewBates has an enjoyable teaching style. He teaches how streamers work, how to select them, and the techniques for fishing them through fictionalized accounts of anglers interacting over a several day period.
This is the most comprehensive reference on classic streamer patterns you will find, with great tying instructions. His history and research are outstanding too. If you're interested in streamers and bucktails, for any kind of fish, you can't go wrong with this book.
If the book has any fault, perhaps it talks about Maine a little too much, but hey, that's where streamers and bucktails really come on. (At least according to Bates!)Streamer Fly Tying & Fishing Overview

Scenic Driving New England ReviewIn 320 pages and 28 scenic drives Stewart Green leaves no stone (or should I say rock) unturned in describing each drive.
With this book, you'll not only get directions from one town to another along the route but everything that's in-between, and a fair dose of area history and stories. Stewart takes his role seriously in being your guide, and not just a "tour driver" regurgitating memorized facts.
I'm very familiar with many of the drives he describes and confess to discovering places and information even new to me.
This isn't a book to read cover to cover in one sitting. It's too dense, and the drives are much too varied as well. My suggestion is to have an idea where you'll visit and then read those scenic drives related to those areas. It'll provide insights and planning material for your trip as well.
The smaller format of the book begs for it to be taken on each trip with you. Many of the pages in my copy quickly became "dog-eared" and full of sticky notes.
I was a little disappointed with many of the pictures in my paperback edition. I found myself staring at photos of non-descript riverbeds with rocks. I'm sure in full color and glossy format they looked great, but in black and white on non-glossy paper many looked flat and over-indulgent.
But I didn't purchase the book for the photography.
If you're looking for a New England scenic drive book with all the directions and details to make sure you don't miss a thing along the way, then look no further than this book.Scenic Driving New England Overview

The Dog Lover's Companion to Washington, D.C.: The Inside Scoop on Where to Take Your Dog (Dog Lover's Companion Guides) ReviewI am still trying to figure my way around the DC area and with a high-energy dog and a tiny backyard, I have been looking for a way to get to know the best parts of the city. This guide book is excellent in giving honest reviews and directions. I love the cheesy humor, DC-life commentary and canine-related puns throughout! It makes reading a guide book enjoyable and not meticulous or boring. The illustrations are fun, too. A great book that I recommend all dog-owners in the DC area buy!The Dog Lover's Companion to Washington, D.C.: The Inside Scoop on Where to Take Your Dog (Dog Lover's Companion Guides) Overview
