Riding the Dragon's Back the Race to Raft the Upper Yangtze

New York, NY: Atheneum, 1989. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. Hardcover. ISBN: 0689119321. Color Photographs; This book is in Near Fine condition and has a Very Good+ dust jacket.

The dust jacket is in mostly clean and bright but has some beginning bumping and tiny nicking to the spine ends and corners. "Bangs' college summers were spent as a Colorado River guide in the Grand Canyon. After college, Bangs and some friends concocted a plan to run wild rivers in Ethiopia. In February 1973, he and his crew successfully ran the Awash River in Ethiopia. His identity as a river guide was solidified at that point. Bangs and his penniless friends figured they could finance a return trip or two by taking clients along. And so they did – on the Omo in Ethiopia – and Sobek Expeditions (co-founded with John Yost) was born, named in gratitude for the Egyptian crocodile god who may have spared their lives on those early first descents. Sobek became a river-running exploratory company via which Bangs and fellow guides racked up 35 first descents. Sobek Expeditions merged with Mountain Travel to become Mountain Travel Sobek in 1991. Bangs served as president of Outward Bound (2001–2002). " (from Wikipedia). Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket .
