About this book

Life Is A River is an old man's look back at his childhood and his relationship with his Grandpa. He reflects on the life lessons he learned while learning to fly fish the streams and rivers of the North Carolina mountains.

A quiet strength resided in that place, a timelessness that mirrored the man who first brought him there. Grandpa wasn't a man of many grand pronouncements, but his words, when they came, settled deep — like sediment in a riverbed.

He taught him not just about the arc of a perfect cast or the subtle dance of a dry fly, but about the very rhythm of existence and spirituality.
