From the rear cover
Advance Praise for Two Coots in a Canoe"This is the story of two men in one canoe, but on two different journeys. One sees endless opportunities while the other knows his fate is sealed before he ever picks up his paddle. Fresh and honest, light and dark, terminal yet hopeful--these are the undercurrents of a gifted storyteller." --Howard Corwin, M.D., Psychiatrist, Conservationist"Two Coots in a Canoe is--nearly to the end--a book of laughter, an account of the comic misadventures of two old friends. . . . And then come the final pages: The two friends' dark destination will surprise and shock all readers, even those with the wits of a wood tick. This remarkable book should be bought and read. Those who do will remember it for a long time." --Bill Gilbert, author of God Gave Us This Country and winner of the National Magazine Award"Dave Morine has done it again, proving that it is often what you do when you aren't striving to get ahead that is most important. When you finish this book, you'll want to drop everything, grab a canoe, and explore your own river."--George H. Fenwick, President, American Bird Conservancy
