Tonight at 8 p.m. on Ozarks Public Television’s show Sense of Community, authors Tom Koob and Curtis Copeland will be featured in conversation with host Gregory Holman to discuss their latest book, On The River: A History of the Ozarks Float Trip, published this summer by the Ozarks Studies Institute.

Complete with personal interviews, classic photographs and historic newspaper and magazine articles, On The River examines the guides, camps, outfitters and gear that spawned and grew the distinctive sport of floating the wild rivers and creeks of the Ozarks region.
