In the Company of Rivers:an Angler's Sto

Here s a book that embraces yet transcends the fly-fisher s world much as Bryson s A Walk in the Woods transcends the hiker s world. It is a journey to remote Labrador, to Alaska, Scotland, Ireland, the Florida Keys, to a Pepsi shack on the Catawba in the Carolinas, to a tackle shop no bigger than a rooster s nest on 42nd Street, to Kettle Creek in Pennsylvania s Forbidden Lands. It is suffused with the fragrance of Montecristos, the plumy sweetness of vintage Port, the sizzle of sirloins on a Coleman stove. Plus such unforgettable characters as Mr. Earp, a 100 percent West Virginian and 50 percent Cherokee; and Mr. Cotter, the quintessential NY cop turned fly-fishing gentleman. Ah, to write like Ed! He tickles you with his humorous observations and gets instructive without your even noticing. Curt Hill, Orvis-Endorsed Instructor + Destinations Planner A delicious collection filled with hearty helpings of wit and wisdom. Robert Selb, The Classic Fly Fisherman What an enjoyable read! Quigley has a witty way of telling amusing stories about his many and varied fly-fishing adventures. Charlie Meck, author of The Hatches Made Simple
