Though he made his name and his fortune as an author of western novels, Zane Grey’s best writing has to do with fishing. An avid fisherman both in the United States and worldwide, Grey was constantly in motion, sometimes fishing three hundred days a year, always writing to support his passion. At one time or another, he held more than a dozen salt water records.
This book is a selection of some of Grey’s best work, and the stories and excerpts reveal a man who understood that angling is more than an activity--it is a way of seeing, a way of being more fully a part of the natural world.
