Crossing the Driftless: A Canoe Trip Through a Midwestern LandscapeThe Driftless Area is the land the glaciers missed, an ancient landscape of bluffs, ridgetops, and steep valleys that long ago was a seabed. Covering much of southwestern Wisconsin, its contours were deeply carved from bedrock, not by ice but by many rivers. Crossing the Driftless is both a traveler's tale and an exploration of this dramatic environment, following the streams of geologic and human history. Lynne Diebel and her husband, Bob, crossed
The Driftless Area is the land the glaciers missed, an ancient landscape of bluffs, ridgetops, and steep valleys that long ago was a seabed. Covering much of southwestern Wisconsin, its contours were deeply carved from bedrock, not by ice but by many rivers.Crossing the Driftless is both a traveler's tale and an exploration of this dramatic environment, following the streams of geologic and human history. Lynne Diebel and her husband, Bob, crossed the Driftless Area by canoe, journeying 359 river miles (and six Mississippi River locks and five portages) from Faribault, Minnesota, where her family has a summer home on Cedar Lake, to their Wisconsin home in Stoughton, one block from the Yahara River. Traveling by river and portage, they paddled downstream on the Cannon and Mississippi rivers and upstream on the Wisconsin River, in the tradition of voyageurs. Lynne tells the story of their trip, but also the stories of the rivers they canoed and the many tributaries whose confluences they passed.

Valuable and accessible information made easy by the authors style
Format: Kindle
The authors offer two books in one, in estate planning and living trusts, which mutually reenforce each other. They also offer education in these intimidating areas in a clear almost outline form so the reader can easily identify topics for each paragraph and determine what to focus on. At a higher level, one of the many quotes stands out as a theme for this book “Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.” This book educates, not only for the reader but for the reader’s protection of his or her family and protecting the assets built for that family. The advice goes beyond the actual instruments, legal, business and tax guidance to recommending strategies to work with the professionals required. From the subject to inspiration to undertake these instruments, this is an excellent source of information.
