Black and white parody of Grant Wood's American Gothic, with a caricature of a punk holding a kayak in the middle

Whitewater Home Companion: Southeastern Rivers, Volume 1 (2nd Edition, Revised)

by William Nealy Author

Irreverent art of its own kind, this comic book is for those looking for the nostalgia of an era of comics from twenty years ago and those looking for a reprint of William Nealy's art -- this book specifically chronicling the first part of his adventures of kayaking rivers in the American Southeast. These comics have been a staple among whitewater kayakers and are now reissued by Menasha Ridge Press. Part of the iconic art are the maps, the cartography of his adventures, companions to his comics. The rivers this edition includes are as follows: 

  • Chattahoochee
  • Chattooga, Sections III & IV
  • Cheat Canyon
  • French Broad/Big Laurel Creek
  • Gauley
  • Haw
  • Hiwassee
