Editorial Review:

Book Description:
The Maine guide canoe is an emblem of the great wilderness of Maine - and of brilliant craftsmanship. In this classic book, master canoe builder Jerry Stelmok shares his vast knowledge and experience, taking you through the building process in clear, step-by-step progression with large photographs detailing every stage.

For those who long for the grace, flexibility, and durability of the traditional cedar canoe, this book offers a unique opportunity to both own and build one.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book for those interested in how canoes are made
I read the book because I wanted to know how wood and canvas canoes are made. This was the book recommended by a friend that has four wood and canvas canoes. I found it to be a straight forward book on how to make a canoe starting from selecting the wood, to stretching on the canvas. Every step was explained as if your father was teaching you the family business.
