"These essays combine an adventurer&apos;s soul with a philosopher&apos;s head. Kudos to Zak Podmore, a fresh new voice from the West." <br>&mdash;<b>PHILIP CONNORS</b>, author of <i>A Song for the River</i> <br><br>"An ambitious, adventurous ride. The words themselves move like rivers&mdash;from choked, bucking rapids to languid flat water, to eddies swirling with uncomfortable truths&hellip; Zak Podmore has unleashed the kind of storytelling that will inspire the next great wave of ecological activism&mdash;and not a moment too soon." <br>&mdash;<b>AMY IRVINE</b>, author of <i>Desert Cabal</i> <br><br>"The publication of <i>Confluence</i> marks the arrival of an important new voice in the West." <br>&mdash;<b>DAVID GESSNER</b>, author of <i>Ultimate Glory</i> and <i>All the Wild that Remains</i> <br><br>"Finally! Finally a young writer who deeply feels and understands the power of water, the power of emotion, the power of words. <i>Confluence</i> is a profoundly personal and philosophical look at Western rivers and their value to all souls." <br>&mdash;<b>ANDY NETTELL</b>, Back of Beyond Books <br><br>In the wake of his river&ndash;running mother&apos;s death, Zak Podmore explores the healing power of wild places through a lens of grief and regeneration. Visceral, first&ndash;person narratives include a canoe crossing of the Colorado River delta during a rare release of water, a kayak sprint down a flash&ndash;flooding Little Colorado River, and a packraft trip on the Elwha River in Washington through the largest dam removal project in history.
