Few literature have captured the haunting world of music and streams and of the activity they provide as well as A River Never Sleeps. Roderick L. Haig-Brown writes of fishing not simply as a sport, but also as an art. He is aware of moving drinking water and the life span within it - its subtlest mysteries and perpetual delights. He is a man who knows seafood lore as few people ever will, and the legends and background of a great sport. Month by month, he goes from river to river, down finally to the saltwater and the sea: in January, looking for the steelhead in the dark, cold water; in May, fishing for glowing, sea-run cutthroats; and on to the chilly days and nights of Oct and the majestic run of spawning salmon. All of the great pleasure of angling is here now: the excitement of fishing during a thunderstorm, the vision of your river in freshet or a river calm and hushed, the suspense of your skillful campaign to capture some half-glimpsed trout or salmon of incredible size, and the enjoyment of participating in and landing a momentous seafood. A River Never Sleeps is one of the enduring classics of angling. It will provide a rich listening experience for any who love fishing or rivers.
