A book that really connects with the reader,
By Tony Duus (Darwin NT Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The River Behind the Hill: A Celebration of Australian Fly Fishing (Hardcover)
Philip Weigall is a long time fly fisher from the New South Wales/ Victorian border area in Australia. His book focuses upon his experiences in fly fishing in this area, and irrespective of whether or not you know the area, the book will quickly bring you under its spell.The book describes to the reader in a series of stories, how Philip feels about flyfishing - not a sport but a part of life. The stories are beautifully accompanied by pictures taken by Philip and his partner and add immeasurably to the experience of the book. Dangerous to leave on the coffee table, this book will be worn out within 12 months. A great book as a gift (My father got a copy last Christmas!) but buy two and keep one on your own bookcase. I did.
