Norman Maclean‘s autobiographical title novella of fly fishing and life draws upon his early years spent mostly in the Rocky Mountain region. Though critically acclaimed from the outset, the work received little attention until its adaptation as a major film, after which it achieved tremendous popular success. In addition to the title story, this collection includes “Logging and Pimping and ‘Your Pal, Jim’” and “USFS 1919: The Ranger, the Cook, and a Hole in the Sky.”
Attractive copy of this modern classic.
