Goodbye to a River

This book is about a man's farewell canoe voyage on the Brazos River in Texas, where he reflects on the proposed dams that would change the surrounding countryside and people's lives. He delves into the region's old blood feuds, violent skirmishes with native tribes, and courageous and deceitful stories that shaped the river's people and the land's frontier history. Goodbye to a River is a true American classic, a powerful tribute to a vanishing way of life and its ever-changing natural environment.
