A River Runs Through It

In our family, there was no clear line between religion and fly fishing. Norman Maclean's childhood experiences on Montana's Big Blackfoot River are brought to life in A River Runs Through It, which captures the author's vivid descriptions of life along the waterway through its captivating blend of fly fishing and romantic drama. This edition is designed and illustrated by Barry Moser. There are thirteen two-color wood engravings. A masterpiece. . . . This is more than stunning fiction: It is a lyric record of a time and a life, shining with Maclean's special gift for calling the readers' attention to arts of all kinds—the arts that work in nature, in personality, in social intercourse, in fly-fishing.
