George Ivey has published Up River: A Novel of Attempted Restoration.

Fred Chappell says of the novel, "George Ivey gives us a fascinating story, filled with folks friendly and threatening, cheery and cranky. The subjects this fast-paced
novel addresses are as important as they are plentiful. . [A]nyone who reads Up River will learn how perilous is the balance of nature-and human nature. Entrancing."
