Hunting & Fishing

Intl Marine Pub Co

In these nineteen lyrical stories, Don Thomas takes us to many places: Christmas Island in search of bonefish; an Alaskan river where boating a huge rainbow becomes momentarily more important than avoiding a midstream collision with a nine-foot grizzly; a far northern pond and an encounter with the Ultimate Northern Pike; and Yellowstone's Lewis Lake for a young daughter's first brown trout on a fly. From each story we learn a little about fishing and a lot about life.

"Hunts are best measured by the endurance of the memories they produce," E. Donnall Thomas Jr. writes in this, his first collection of waterfowling essays. He might have added that good books are likewise measured by how vivid, and how long, they remain in the mind of the reader. By Dawn's Early Light is a book that will stay with you long after you have read it. Though he has pursued big game, upland birds, and a variety of fish all over the world, Thomas reserves a special place in his heart for duck and goose hunting, That's because waterfowling is to him a uniquely American sport. A sport of home and hearth, of memories made even more poignant by the knowledge that the first light of dawn is fleeting and will not last. Thomas captures these moments so well that his memories become ours. (5 3/4 x 8 3/4, 200 pages, illustrations)

They boldly charge into the thickest cover for pheasants, launch themselves into ice-laden water for downed mallards, face hardship with enthusiasm and pain with stoic composure. They do this not simply as a function of their breeding, but out of simply as a function of their breeding, but out of simple and deep devotion to their masters. That devotion is returned in this stunning word and picture tribute from noted photographer Denver Bryan and writer E. Donnall Thomas. The pages brim with over 130 beautiful color photos of Labs in action across the marshes, forests, and plains of North America. Complementing these stunning images is a compelling text examining the history of Labs and chronicling their impressive traits and endearing foibles on hunts across the country.

DREAM FISH &amp; ROAD TRIPS is a brilliant collection of fly-fishing stories from a man who has traveled the world in search of fly-fishing adventures, from Christmas Island and Hawaii to Alaska and Siberia. With writing both perceptive and disarmingly simple, hilarious, and informative, Thomas takes us along to some of the world's great places, fishing for species as regal as chinook salmon in Alaska, as humble as walleye in the Missouri River, and as mysterious as the red weke--a small, possibly psychoactive goatfish of great ceremonial significance to native Hawaiians. If Hunter S. Thompson were to take up fly fishing, he'd eventually find Don Thomas. Here's a marvelously entertaining book for all fly fishers itching to break out of civilization.
