Product Information
Shantyboat is the story of a leisurely journey down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers to New Orleans. For most people such a journey is the stuff that dreams are made of, but for Harlan and Anna Hubbard it became a cherished reality. In the fall of 1944 they built a houseboat, small but neatly accommodated to their needs, on the bank of the Ohio near Cincinnati, and in it after a pause of two years they set out to drift down the river. In their small craft, the Hubbards became one with the flow of the river and its changing weathers. An artist by profession, Harlan Hubbard records with graceful ease the many facets of their life on the river-the panorama of fields and woods, summer gardening, foraging expeditions for nuts and berries, dangers from storms and treacherous currents, the quiet solitude of the mists of early morning. Their life is sustained by the provender of bank and stream, useful things made and found, and mutual aid and wisdom from people met along the journey. It is a life marked by simplicity and independence, strenuous at times, but joyous, with leisure for painting and music, for observation and contemplation.

Reviews
The boat conveys its household into the wilderness. From its windows... the world is newly seen and understood. But also newly understood are the meanings of being married, of living together, of having neighbors, of the skills and arts by which people house, feed, and please themselves, and care for one another., "An undervalued classic of American letters. It belongs on a bookshelf sandwiched between Twain's Life on the Mississippi and Thoreau's Walden." -- Ohio Magazine, Harlan Hubbard is one of the best writers about 'alternative' life in America. His graceful prose is a model for writers in the same way his and Anna's lives are models for all people who seek to live in nature with grace and economy., "The boat conveys its household into the wilderness. From its windows... the world is newly seen and understood. But also newly understood are the meanings of being married, of living together, of having neighbors, of the skills and arts by which people house, feed, and please themselves, and care for one another." -- Wendell Berry, from the Foreword, "Harlan Hubbard is one of the best writers about 'alternative' life in America.
