Encounters from a Kayak: Native People, Sacred Places, and Hungry Polar Bears
皮划艇遭遇：原住民，圣地和饥饿的北极熊
Nigel Foster
奈杰尔·福斯特
What makes travel special? Perhaps the chill realization that a polar bear's eyes are fixed on you. Maybe it is the chance meeting with a man who buries sharks in a beach, only to dig them up months later, not out of morbid curiosity, but for food. Perhaps it is the undulating wing-beat of a dark shell-less gastropod in the canal of a 17th Century French sea port, or the criminal history of a rusting ship with a tree growing from its hold.Encounters in a Kayak brings the reader along on the magical experiences that surround sea kayaking. It’s about the animals, people, and special places around the globe that have grabbed the attention of renowned kayaker and writer Nigel Foster. His irrepressible curiosity drives him to tease out the unexpected stories hidden behind his subjects. These nuggets from around the world are bound together by water and a centuries-old form of sea travel: kayak. The result is a book of broad appeal for those interested in kayaking, traveling, and adventure.
是什么让旅行特别？也许北极熊的眼睛注视着你的冷静认识。也许是与一个在海滩上埋葬鲨鱼的人碰面的机会，只是几个月后才将它们挖掘出来，并非出于病态的好奇心，而是为了觅食。也许是17世纪法国海港运河中无壳的深色无腹足动物起伏不定的机翼拍打，或者是一艘生锈的船的犯罪历史，上面有一棵树从船头长出。皮划艇遭遇带给读者有关海上皮划艇的神奇体验。它涉及吸引了著名的皮划艇手和作家奈杰尔·福斯特（Nigel Foster）的注意力的全球动物，人和特殊场所。他不可抑制的好奇心驱使他挑逗隐藏在臣民背后的意外故事。来自世界各地的这些掘金被水和百年海上航行的皮划艇所束缚。结果对那些对皮划艇，旅行和冒险感兴趣的人产生了广泛的吸引力。
