Crazy for Rivers - Tales of Trout Fishing
Bill Barich
Publisher: Skyhorse Publishing
Summary
“This superb collection of essays will make readers crazy not only for rivers but also for trout and Barich’s vivid prose” (Booklist). “That autumn, I went a little crazy for rivers.” So writes Bill Barich, and this charming volume captures the essence of that obsession. The hours he spent on various streams became a meditation on family, friends, and the natural world. To anyone who remembers the infinite patience of a grandfather on a lake, or the romance of a mountain getaway with a new girlfriend; to anyone who can recall each fish caught on days that were far too hot, or way too cold, or on rivers too crowded, or in canyons too steep; to anyone who has appreciated the trust of an age-old fishing partner, or marveled at the beauty of a leaping trout—to anyone, in fact, who has ever gone a little crazy for rivers, Bill Barich’s wonderful memories of a season on the water and a lifetime of fishing will seem both touching and wise. “A seasoned performance.” —The New York Times
