Paddle Pilgrim chronicles a month-long paddle adventure on the magnificent Sogne and Hardanger Fjords in Norway, where the author's ancestors emigrated from to America in the 1850's. The narrative weaves together three elements: 1. Paddle: daily detailed accounts of experiences on the water and in the mountains. 2. Ponder: reflections on those experiences and their significance. 3. Pictures: award-winning photographs which bring the experiences to life.
