About this title

Synopsis

"Not only a naturalist of obvious authority, but the master of sinewy prose."--The New Yorker

"Haig-Brown is a star of the first magnitude."--Outside Magazine

Roderick L. Haig-Brown is one of the world's most beloved fly-fishing writers: His classic books bring together exquisite prose, the full romance and beauty of fishing, and much solid angling advice.

Here, for the first time in one volume, are his popular seasons books: Fisherman's Spring, Fisherman's Summer, Fisherman's Fall, and Fisherman's Winter. They chronicle a fisherman's year, from the brightening days of spring through a loving portrait of the author's home rivers in British Columbia during the summer, and on into the excitement of fall fishing and a winter away from his Campbell River to fish the great rivers of Argentina and Chile.

As Verlyn Klinkenborg has said, "I think it forms some sort of watershed experience in every angler's reading when he comes upon Roderick Haig-Brown for the first time." And so it does. The Seasons of a Fisherman is an excellent place to start.

About the Author

Roderick L. Haig-Brown was born in England but lived all his adult life on Vancouver Island, along the banks of the Campbell River. His books include A River Never Sleeps, To Know a River, Measure of the Year, and a dozen other important books that together form the finest achievement in angling prose in North America. Haig-Brown died in 1976.
