Format:Paperback
The beginning was a little slow but it payed off. It ended up being the best book I ever read.
Format:Paperback
Gierach has a wit and a love for nature like no one I have ever read. Every story he tells is not only an incredible experience, but most of the time a lesson well learned. As I read along, I found myself wanting to be standing streamside with John,A.K.,and the rest of the boys. Although Gierach seems to have strong opinions, he doesn't come off as "I'm right cause I wrote the book." He is more of, "Here's what I think, you decide for yourself." Thanks John, keep em coming.

Shinnning Example of Great Writing

This is a great book. It contains the standard fare provided by Gierach, which is good stories, great insight, and vivid imagery. Unlike other books, however, this one is not nearly as preachy as some of his other books which makes it all the more enjoyable. It is well paced, and never fails to offer a similarly themed story. As a result, there is a variety within this book's stories. This is why I suggest you buy this book if you like to fly fish, and must settle in for the oncoming winter.
