Kenny Salwey is the last of a breed of men whose lifestyle has all but disappeared in this fast-paced, high-tech digital world. For thirty years, this weathered woodsman eked out a living on the Mississippi River, running a trapline, hiring out as a river guide, digging and selling roots and herbs, and eating the food he hunted and fished. Today, Salwey is a master storyteller, environmental educator, keynote speaker, nature writer, and advocate for the Upper Mississippi River. He has presented his true-life adventures and words of natural world wisdom to both adult and young audiences across the Upper Midwest. By sharing his hard-learned experiences, his respect for the Mississippi River, and his love of the natural world, Salwey hopes to inspire his audiences to protect this precious and fragile ecosystem.

Kenny shared his life with have been his best friends." --Larry
Meiller, Wisconsin Public Radio
"I really enjoyed [Kenny's] new book although [it] got me almost to
tears a few times. "The Dogs and I: True Tails from the
Mississippi" is really touching." --Larry Meiller, Wisconsin Public
Radio
