Okay, this goes against what I said about reading key parts of the KJV, but if you're just wanting to get the characters and stories imprinted in your brain, here's a great resource: The Picture Bible
Yes, it's all the Bible stories in graphic novel format. I read this like crazy when I was a kid.
A.J. Jacobs is his name. If anyone's interested the book is called The Know it All it's about Jacobs quest to become the smartest person in the world by reading the entire Encyclopedia Britannica
This book is comprehensive and a classic: https://www.amazon.com/Mythology-Timeless-Tales-Gods-Heroes/dp/0446574759/
Virtually every single Greek/Roman/Norse mythology clue can be answered from this book.
Playing With Fire
This is the one I'm aware of (I grew up in Charleston, so it was a big deal when it was published). Might not be the one you're thinking of, but thought I'd give it a shot.

Well, right now, I'm living in Phoenix, and I'm sure ASU has an engineering department, and it wouldn't surprise me if they had a concrete canoe competition, so maybe I'll google a bit and see about spending a spare Saturday or something checking it out.
Also, here's that short story. (Turns out the author is also a physics prof, which I hadn't expected.) It's really stupid (our church still has some pretty old-fashioned ideas men's and women's roles), but at least there is a concrete canoe in it. And this is the novel he turned it into, which is equally stupid, but there you have it. %-)
(Also, checking canoe weights: Went to clippercanoes.com, looked at the specs, and for a typical 17' canoe, the fibreglass ones weigh around 72 lb., and the Kevlar ones weigh around 60 lb. So yeah, I'm not sure I'd even want to portage the 100 lb. ones, never mind anything around 200 lb....)
