River Runs Through it,A and other stories by Norman Maclean

Unique in the annals of modern fiction, A River Runs Through It is more than just a portrait of a vanished America-it is a living piece of that world. Written when Norman Maclean was in his seventies, his first book of fiction was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize and became a bestseller.

The title novella recalls the experiences of a young man in frontier Montana: of his minister father, who taught his sons the ways of grace and fly fishing; of his brother, an artist at trout fishing but less than successful at life; and the swift cold rivers that ran from the heart of the mountains into the still-mysterious heart of man.
