WATERS OF YELLOWSTONE WITH ROD & FLY 1ED Format: Paperback

Howard Back's charming guide to the rich waters in and near Yellowstone National Park has been revered as a classic for sixty-five years. It is not only one of the most readable and entertaining fly-fishing memoirs but a practical handbook that is still wise and useful. In one of the first books to bring the many rivers of Yellowstone to the attention of the fishing public, Back gives accurate descriptions of all the best streams and lakes in the area and invaluable information about where to fish and at what season. Graced with more than sixty photographs by Dan Callaghan, an introduction by Craig Mathews, and the first accurate biography of the hitherto unknown Back by Robert H. Berls, this will be a delight to all who love Yellowstone Country.
