A beautiful book of deep insight

Neversink is a beautiful book that borders on poetry. It is about a man who loves a river and fishing and finally buys a small piece of land with Neversink river frontage. It is about his many efforts to improve his fishing and river habitat on his property. And it is about Nature and man's relationship to it. I own fishing water and value the wisdom of this wonderful book and I have given it to many of my friends who, like Wright, try to improve their fishing waters. The basic lessons of this book apply to much more than rivers and fish. This book is a pleasure to read and think about, reread and think about some more. It is more in the genre of Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leopold than how to fish. I love the book and highly recommend it.
