25 Kayak & Canoe Trips in East-Central Florida

By East-Central Florida we mean the areas around Daytona Beach and Orlando. In addition to the east coast saltwater trails, this book covers the inland lakes and "runs" as well. Our favorite is the well marked kayak/canoe trail along Blackwater Creek through a Cyprus swamp and out onto a great lake. All of the 25 trails are fun. If you havenŐt done much paddling in this area, this guide will get you out there for some great fun and adventures. It shares with you our favorite places. We tell you where to go, how to get there and explain what you may see. More than 75 full color photos enhance the interactive nature of this book. Its unique format and size make it a handy reference guide to stick in your back pocket to accompany you on your adventures.



Be on the lookout for our new website which should go live In the next few weeks!!!

Along with a new design there will also be a blog where the authors will be keeping in touch with everyone, a new Facebook page, and a few more surprises. Stay tuned!


Common Man Hiking and Biking Trail Guide Series

If you want to get out and explore the great outdoors, but don't know where to go... and don't want to work too hard when you get there... then this series of trail guides is for you!

Each book contains more than 60 color photographs and has easy-to-follow directions from an Interstate highway. Each trail listed is described in detail and is rated easy, moderate or difficult. They are spiral bound on the top and designed to fit easily into your pocket or backpack.

The series is known as the "Common Man" series because the average man or woman can actually do these trails. If you can't, we tell you that you can't. Each book tells you what we found and what you can expect to see and experience. A log sheet is included for each hike so you can record your experiences.

All books in the Common Man Series are bound in a durable hip-pocket size spiral format.
