Today his writings about the rivers he loved  the trout and salmon that obsessed him  and the life of an angler are as stirring  amusing  and powerfully felt as they were when first published. In seven parts  the book moves from discovering the river to the fish that live in it  from the art of fishing to the philosophy that underlies it. The 54 sparkling essays in this collection - the only compilation of essays from his many famous titles - include such classics as \"Fly Types \" a meditation on the appropriate flies for different conditions; \"Perfect Morning \" in which he shares the joys of the catch; and \"What is Good?\"  a musing about luck. Illustrated with 16 black-and-white plates and brimming with the sights  smells  and tastes of the river  this stunning collection is a beautiful tribute to fly fishing and love of the land.
