A book of glistening eloquence

Among his Baby Boomer contemporaries, Al Kesselheim has distinguished himself as a gifted observer of the natural world, and an expert in reading the nuances of water, (both physically and metaphorically).While his previous books involve single nautical adventures, here he takes us on several. Not all of them, of course, involve life-changing encounters but each has meaning, meaning especially insightful for those of us whotoo often are bound to our offices and daydream of stealing away more time outdoors. Kesselheim'swriting is like the lakes and rivers he navigates--full of strong undercurrents that liehidden just beneath the surface of his narratives; pools and eddies colored with humility and reflection; big, sweeping landscapes that form an intriguing emotional backdrop. Threading the Currents is a fine read.
