South of the Border Trout
I really enjoyed this book. While its topic is not exactly fishing, not exactly enviro, not exactly travel - Johnson mixes opinions, observations and facts on trout, politics, south west history, people, and a look at how one may live in a very elemental style. He writes well. I will read it again and the photos are fascinating. I hope Rex Johnson does more books as...

Evolution Delusion
Uh, yeah, conveniently these fish and thousands of other "species" magically don't change for millions of years, I and my evidence-based Bible do not think so.

I hope Rex Johnson does more books as this, along with his guidebook on trout in southern new mexico, are very high quality........

A Refreshing Read,

This review is from: The Quiet Mountains: A Ten-Year Search for the Last Wild Trout of Mexico's Sierra Madre Occidental (University of Arizona Southwest Centre) (Hardcover)
This is a fascinating exploration of a relatively unknown region of two countries. A study in determination and patience, Johnson's writing sparkles like the clear rills, pools and falls that I thought were gone forever. A refuge for survivors, from the Apaches to the rancheros, parrots and "narcos" of today, this is another view of the region Cormac McKarthy calls "not for old men". Complimented with great photography.

small streams ... and desire ... to find something wild beyond boundries and borders .. If you fish to catch fish ... you will find this book strange .. but if you fish to step out side ...into a wild .. place this book might suggest it is possible.
