Description:
New York: Atheneum, 1989. First edition. Hardcover. Good/very good +. Includes color photographs of the adventure. "The upper Yangtze River is the dragon, a beautiful and savage beast.... The authors tell firsthand what its like to pit your nerve and skill against a primal force of nature." -- from the jacket flap. Publishers Weekly -- "From the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau at more than 17,000 feet above sea level, the Yangtze sweeps nearly 4000 miles to the East China Sea near Shanghai. Its source, in a remote and sparsely populated area, was discovered in 1985; few travelers had seen the upper river in one of the last unexplored regions on Earth. Bangs and Kallen, coauthors of Rivergods , wanted to be the first Americans to raft the uncharted "Great Bend'' section of the upper Yangtze. They lost out to Ken Warren and his Sino-USA Expedition; in addition, two Chinese groups planned to run the river from its headwaters…

Atheneum Books, 1989. First edition. Hardcover. Like New/Very Good . 9x6x0. A short tear to dustjacket. From the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau at more than 17,000 feet above sea level, the Yangtze sweeps nearly 4000 miles to the East China Sea near Shanghai. Its source, in a remote and sparsely populated area, was discovered in 1985; few travelers had seen the upper river in one of the last unexplored regions on Earth. Bangs and Kallen, coauthors of Rivergods , wanted to be the first Americans to raft the uncharted Great Bend section of the upper Yangtze.

In three ill-fated expeditions of 1986 there were six fatalities. The following year, Bangs and Kallen successfully took a team of experienced rafters and well-heeled clients to the river.
