Great adventure stories with a wacky sense of humor
I discovered Kevin via his Happy Camper video series on YouTube. I like that he has this oddball sense of humor but still conveys a lot of great information and advice about camping and canoeing. His love for the outdoors (and Canada) is obvious, and he approaches even things like long portages and swarms of mosquitoes with an almost childlike glee that's infectious.

Read in one day
Bought this for FIL post knee surgery. He read it in one day! I loved it. Very good book.

Pretty good read
I heard about this book on the radio and was intrigued. No, I'm not really outdoorsy, and I don't go canoeing, but the idea of someone promoting the wilderness made sense to me. The stories are short enough to read while you're eating breakfast. And pretty entertaining. Just not riveting. Maybe to an outdoor enthusiast they would hold more allure.

Great stories, will definitely keep you entertained and excited to explore in a canoe
Kevin is hilarious and both a great author and story teller. If I could pick any canoeing partner for a day it would be the Happy Camper

Kevin Callan's "Dazed but not Confused", is a great read.
Kevin Callan ' s new book "Dazed but not Confused: Tales of a wilderness wanderer", is a great read, his best adventures, and some misadventures, there all there. I enjoyed reading about his insight to Guiding. This book will appeal to a broad audience.

Kevin Callan is an amazing resource for canoeing in Ontario. His YouTube channel is excellent and led me to search for more from him. This did not disappoint. Great read with lots of food for thought and humorous stories. Highly recommend

Good delivery, very quick. Kevin's book is a compendium of stories and experiences he has had over many years of outdoor life. His love for nature and appreciation of the environment and how easily we can damage it comes across very strongly. He is able to laugh and learn from his own mistakes. A very enjoyable read overall, reminds me a little of a Canadian style of Lake Woebegone tales. Thoroughly recommend

Saw Keven at the Welsh Canoe Symposium last year, 2016, and thought he was hilarious. Reading his book I can see him recounting his stories.
