Title: The world of water
Subtitle: exploring the Sacramento Delta
Description: The Sacramento Delta is a maze of inland waterways formed by three rivers. This boating paradise was a second home to Erle Stanley Gardner. His life aboard his houseboat, traveling along the shady banks or visiting small, almost forgotten towns which were once bustling ports during steamship days, opens up new and delightful vistas for the armchair sailor. "the World of Water" was written a scant few years before his death, but exhibits the same captivating prose that his mystery novels are known for.
