"I found this book when I was going through my dad's library of books. It sounded interesting I knew my dad whether he read it or not really loved this book. It was slow going at first but as I read more and more I felt as though I was silently riding along with Eddy. I could hear the river, smell the diesel, and it was wonderful. I highly recommend this book and hope you enjoy it as much as I did."
"What a pleasure to read, lovely writing -- a journey down the Mississippi and into the author's own understanding of himself and his world. Harris is a new author to me, but I will definitely look for more."
