Journeys Through the Inside Passage by Joe Upton

Writer and fisherman Joe Upton recounts the riveting stories of explorers of the past and seafarers of the present in JOURNEYS THROUGH THE INSIDE PASSAGE. His chronicle offers events vivid in their telling: the journey of widow  Muriel Blanchet, who solo navigated a small vessel in the 1930s with her five children; the failed meeting of explorers Alexander Mackenzie and George Vancouver in 1793; countless sinkings; and tales from the author's own experiences plying this legendary waterway.

"Alternately exhilarating and contemplative...Upton's approach underscores the powerful effect of the sea and land on those who choose to wrestle with them."  --- Booklist

Upton has written about and naviagated the fishing grounds of New England, British Columbia, and Alaska.
