Finalist, New Brunswick Book Award for Non-FictionFrom the first
sentence, "I come from a long line of river people," to the last,
"Bad luck to kill a moose bird," Wayne Curtis signals that this
book occupies the territory of a classic, a lyrical memoir of a
river and those who submit to its call.New Brunswick's Miramichi
River is one of the most entrancing salmon rivers in the world. In
Fishing the High Country, Curtis has created what can only be
described as a river masterpiece, a lyrical record of time and
place, of those who are drawn to its side and those who cast their
lines into its waters.Drawing on his experience of life along the
river -- as a boy, as a young man, and as a river guide among
guides, Wayne Curtis crafts the compelling memoir of this place, a
high country where he spins his tales, casts his flies, and fishes
the river and woods for his stories. The Miramichi vibrates in
Curtis's bones. His cast of characters are earthy, whimsical, and
wise. His eye for the telling detail and his rooted understanding
of lives lived humbly will captivate readers with its near mystical
blend of the mysteries of fly fishing and the affections of the
heart.
