Synopsis
From the irrepressible author of Trout Bum and The View from Rat Lake comes an engaging, humorous, often profound examination of life's greatest mysteries: sex, death, and fly-fishing. John Gierach's quest takes us from his quiet home water (an ordinary, run-of-the-mill trout stream where fly-fishing can be a casual affair) to Utah's famous Green River, and to unknown creeks throughout the Western states and Canada. We're introduced to a lively group of fishing buddies, some local "experts" and even an ex-girlfriend, along the way. Contemplative, evocative, and wry, he shares insights on mayflies and men, fishing and sport, life and love, and the meaning (or meaninglessness) of it all., From the irrepressible author of Trout Bum and The View from Rat Lake comes an engaging, humorous, often profound examination of life's greatest mysteries: sex, death, and fly-fishing.John Gierach's quest takes us from his quiet home water (an ordinary, run-of-the-mill trout stream where fly-fishing can be a casual affair) to Utah's famous Green River, and to unknown creeks throughout the Western states and Canada.

So happy with my purchase of the Bluegrass Gospel Songbook! Book is exactly as described in A1 condition! I am so happy to have this book. It arrived in a very timely way and the packing was really great well wrapped to protect the cover and then wrapped again to protect the book itself. Packed better than the book sellers on e bay. I would definitely buy from this seller again. You have no fears to make a purchase with this seller. Thank you so much.

Great price on a book in great shape with dustjacket. Superbly packaged; if the post office had tried to crush the package or soak it in a muddy lake, it still would have arrived in pristine condition. Superb A+ eBay Seller!
