QUOTE: "The Kenai Canoe Trails is an accurate and informative guide to one of the great canoeing systems and national wilderness treasures of the United States. Mr. Quick has written the definitive work on this pristine area. It is destined to become a classic field guide and planning resource for canoeists, hunters, ice fishermen, Nordic skiers, in fact anyone that travels this system of lakes and trails. I doubt that I will ever enter the area again without having a copy of this book close at hand.
