Nineteenth printing (per publisher's number line upon copyright page) of the University of Chicago Press illustrated third edition. [6], 162 pages. Hardcover: H 22.25cm x L 14.25cm. Dust jacket with Moser illustrated front panel; slight soiling to white rear panel; dj now presented in a mylar Brodart protector. Gren spine with tan boards. Interior leaves are bright and clean. Binding remains crisp. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. Norman Maclean's A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT may well be the best novella in American literature with this edition made all the more delightful with Barry Moser's woodblock illustrations. This particular edition omits the two short stories - "Logging and Pimping and 'Your Pal, Jim'" and "USFS 1919: The Ranger, the Cook, and a Hole in the Sky" - which were included in the original 1976 edition. Barry Moser's Pennyroyal Press issued a deluxe leather-bound illustrated second edition in 1989 limited to 206 copies which, in turn, was followed by this University of Chicago Press reprint (i.e. third edition) offset from the Pennyroyal Press edition and reproducing Moser's delightful illustrations in a much smaller format and within a far more modest binding. {LitShelf#12|CMS-02745} ISBN 9780226500607.…

- Literature
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.
This handsome edition is designed and illustrated by Barry Moser. There are thirteen two-color wood engravings.
