Google Earth/Google Maps, right at your fingertips.   Better than any other map I know of.

Here's a map of all the accesses:

Pair that with Google maps and you'll know where you are going.

I would recommend the Paddler's Guide to Missouri. It has all floatable streams in Missouri and highlights each one mile by mile with access point, hazzards, springs etc.. I've used it to plan floats as it tells you how many miles between points of access.

They are sold by the Missouri Dept of Conservation and can be bought at most MDC facilities. I think it was around $10-$15.  I got mine at their headquarters on Mayfair st in Springfield but have also seen them at the Springfield Nature Center. 

This is what the James river page looks like:
