"The Longest Silence- A LIfe in Fishing" by Thomas McGuane has now become an angling classic, and it has done it in a relatively short period of time. Truly some of the best writings on fishing since Hemingway himself!

From the highly acclaimed author of "Ninety-two in the Shade" and "Cloudbursts" come a collection of alternately playful and exquisite essays borne of a lifetime spent fishing. The forty pieces in "The Longest Silence" including seven collected here for the first time- take the reader from the tarpon of Florida to the salmon of Iceland, from the bonefish of Mexico to the trout of Montana. They introduce characters as varies as a highly literate Canadia frontiersman and a devoutly Mormon river guide and address issues ranging from the esoteric art of tying flies to the enduring philosophy of a seventeenth-century anglers to the trials of an aging fisherman. Both reverent and hilarious and infused with a deep experience of wildlife and the outdoors, "The Longest Silence" sets the heart pounding for a glimpse of moving water and demonstrates what dedication to sport reveals about life.
