More Information The critically acclaimed first book by the Don Quixote of fly fishing.
One of my two favorite books of the decade. . . . Seth Normans Meanderings is a seamless union of life, love, and fishing. - Steve Bodio
Crooked cops, feral pit bulls, a baby-herding border collie, fine friends, and mending heartsthey all relate to fly fishing in Seth Normans ground-breaking collection. Brimming with pathos and laughter, Meanderings was praised by Ted Leeson for its toughness and compassion, warmth and humor and a generosity of spirit rarely seen in the literature of angling.
