This Mississippi River Voyages listing started as a post to the newsgroup rec.boats.cruising by Bill Whalen (wfxw1@embarqmail.com).
Bill has concentrated on first person narratives of solo journeys on North American rivers -- but other good stories are included. Feel free to submit your favorites.
Wallace Venable, (wvenable@wvu.edu) originally put the bib up on his web site Canals and Inland Waterways of the United States . On that site you will find information on riverboats, river guides and "river authors". Wallace's, Bill's and other contributer's comments on books in this bibliography are indicated.
