Fishing the River of Time by Tony Taylor (April 2013)
Requirements: ePUB Reader | 550 Kb
Overview: "Life is an adventure searching for answers. They are best looked for in remote places where civilisation hasn’t taken hold. High in the mountains, on wild rivers, in the sea..."
At age eighty, Tony Taylor journeys from Sydney, Australia, to British Columbia to fish the Cowichan River with his eight-year-old grandson, Ned. The trip is an opportunity for Tony to return to a landscape that has had a profound effect on his life and his way of thinking, and to share this place with his grandson. As Tony teaches Ned the patient art of fly-fishing, a lifetime of memories, thoughts, and stories unspool in peaceful reflections by the water's edge.
Fishing the River of Time is an elegant meditation on nature, life, and family, written with warmth and wisdom. It inspires self-reflection and an appreciation of the natural world and the fundamentals of our human experience. It is destined to become a classic work of simple living in the mold of Henry David Thoreau's Walden.
Genre: Non-Fiction, Memoir,

"This is a wise book. If you're a fisherman you'll love it, but also if you're a human being." —Bill McKibben
"A wise and wonderful book flowing with love for the life of the Earth—human, animal, the great woods, and the deep slow pulse of rock and water. Being about 'something more important than fish,' Tony Taylor's book will delight all who angle for the great and wild things, above all beauty and truth." —Ronald Wright, author of A Short History of Progress
"In this simple story of a fishing trip with his grandson, Tony Taylor weaves an enchanting tapestry of memories, thoughts, and knowledge with humor and affection. I was enthralled with Fishing the River of Time from beginning to end." —David Suzuki
