Last year whilst canoeing down there we met another family who were on a weeks trip canoeing down to Monmouth, site and wild camping along the way and we fancy doing the same this year.
Anyway they were using a book which was something self explanatory like the title above but I can't find it anywhere.
Anyone know what I'm going on about?
Thanks

Some people like solitude in order to have freedom to think, others prefer to live among crowds so that they do not need to think.”“I like to feel that we are not superior to other forms of creation, but co-equal with them, each in our own sphere. We are inclined to flatter ourselves on our intelligence, assuming superiority because other creatures seem lacking in powers that we have developed. We seem to forget that they may have powers of which our imagination has no conception. What do we know of the sensations experienced through the lateral line of fish? Not much more than a fish knows of thirst. We can see that every scale along that line is perforated for a nerve ending, but we can hardly do more than guess at what information those nerve-endings convey.”
Have a look at "Coming Down the Wye" by Robert Gibbings.
Also, well worth asking the lovely people at Monmouth Canoe Hire. They're excellent folks and have always helped above and beyond on my recent Wye excursions.

Although they appear to be currently out of stock - the place we hired the canoes from lent us a copy. I didn't find it that useful though tbh - you get better information from the websites listed above and various blogs and trip reports.
Good trip though - well worth doing.
