Nigel Foster’s New Book
Iceland By Kayak
In 1977 Nigel Foster and Geoff Hunter became the first to kayak around Iceland. 
Now as Iceland’s tourism explodes, Foster steps back to a time before modern conveniences such as dry suits, cellphones, or the World Wide Web, exploring a country of just 222,000 people.
Iceland by Kayak offers a refreshing insight into 1970s style kayaking adventure. It is a story of learning, accepting, believing, taking life one day at a time, with no certainty of outcome. It is travel enriched by precious encounters with characterful Icelanders.
List price: $34 95
