Author Biography
Tom Kennon began paddling in 1974 and wrote his first book, Arkansas Whitewater Rivers, in 1978 due to the lack of information about paddling in the area. In 1988, the book was expanded to include more comprehensive river descriptions. Kennon lives in Fort Smith, Arkansas and is still an active paddler and ACA canoe instructor closely associated with the Arkansas Canoe Club.
