A river runs through it / Norman Maclean ; wood engravings by Barry Moser.

Maclean, Norman, 1902-1990 (Author). Moser, Barry. (Added Author). Moser, Barry, (illustrator.).

Summary:

From its first magnificent sentence, "In our family, there was no clear line between religion and fly fishing", to the last, "I am haunted by waters", A River Runs Through It is an American classic. Based on Norman Maclean's childhood experiences, A River Runs Through It has established itself as one of the most moving stories of our time; it captivates readers with vivid descriptions of life along Montana's Big Blackfoot River and its near magical blend of fly fishing with the troubling affections of the heart.
