From the Democrat Gazette:

Bob Robinson’s surprising new paperback, Bicycling Guide to the Mississippi River Trail, can do that.

Written by a hiker and cyclist from Fort Smith with a charming, understated sense of humor, Robinson’s $ 16. 95 paperback might not be a candidate for any fancy prose prizes, but he makes a little-known travel opportunity (there’s a Mississippi River biking trail ?) sound so do-able the reader begins to imagine himself requesting vacation time and saddling up a touring bike.

Full of dry humor but never dry prose, the book makes you want to seek out and follow this Mississippi River Trail, which he describes as the nation’s newest cross-country bicycle route.
