Book Description
Upstream nymph fishing has developed from the minor tactic of G.E.M. Skues into a universally-accepted method wherever fly fishermen fish for brown trout and grayling. The history of nymph fishing is notable for the argument between F.M. Halford, the dry-fly ultrapurist, and Skues, culminating in the debate on the legitimacy of fishing nymphs on chalkstreams and the later fallout between Frank Sawyer and Major Oliver Kite. For the first thirty years of the twentieth century, nymph fishermen were held in contempt and often considered little better than poachers on many chalkstreams. Nymph fishing started and was developed in England and then spread, along with nymph patterns, around the world through the writings of Skues and others and the travels of English anglers. Over the last fifty years, the English method has been adapted and developed to suit local conditions, particularly in the United States.

Book Description
John Stevens should have been a mortality statistic, after 25 years of a life of alcoholic insanity. As a child he endured the violence and chaos of alcoholism in his family, and he chose to perpetuate those family traditions in his own marriage. But today, thirty-five years later, John lives a life which is rich, vital, and, above all, sober; filled with friends, music, and service to others. The story of his metamorphosis is a compelling saga, a journey from the pit of addiction and degradation to a sane and useful life in recovery. John offers his story as a testimonial to the transcendent power of faith, trust, and love to utterly transform a man's life. As his tale reveals, this can sometimes begin in a sudden and dramatic way, on a fall walk through the bare trees of a still Minnesota woods.
