The Habit of Rivers by Ted Leeson

Originally published in 1994, this book was a fly-fishing phenomenon in the way Howell Raines’s Fly Fishing Through the Mid-Life Crisis was. Taking his fishing hobby to near metaphysical levels, Ted Leeson tells about his passions: rivers, trout, and fly fishing. With wry humor and rare insight, he explores questions that engage most fishermen: What is it about rivers that
draws us so irresistibly, and why does fly fishing seem such an aptly suited response? Above all, The Habit of Rivers is about ways of seeing the wonderfully textured world that emanates from a river.

Widely reviewed; critically acclaimed. See the wonderfully textured world that emanates from a river. Far more than a simple account of years spent flyfishing the great trout & salmon streams of the Northwest, it chronicles a search for meaning in small acts. With wry humor & rare insight, it tells the story of a passion for rivers, trout, & fly fishing. 6x9 inches, 192 pgs.
