Oregon Rivers

These are a few of the videos I found while researching Oregon rivers as part of my work for my Book Drum project for The River Why by David James Duncan. Most of the novel is set on Oregon rivers.

I gave the video featuring our local Rogue River the top position. And it looks like I've been partial to Southern Oregon and the coast in spite of having grown up between the Columbia and Cowlitz in SW Washington on the Oregon border and visited the Willamette near Portland often.

Wondering what Book Drum is? Its a new site that provides a way to annotate a novel with multi-media material that explains or enhances the story. Like maps, videos, photos, glossary, author bio, links, quotes from reviews and more. Setting is one of the categories and The River Why is mostly set on or near Oregon rivers. The Rogue River is named specifically. In fact the protagonist was conceived near it.
