Twenty Miles of Fence
Author: Bob West (Rancher)
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 1496235320
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Twenty Miles of Fence recounts a decade of transformation when Bob West, a westerner at heart, decided to escape the pretense of his unfulfilling architectural life and to become, quite simply, a cowboy. A cowboy? That old cliché about biting off more than you can chew fittingly describes the lessons learned when West and his family bought the Devil's Washtub Ranch in Wyoming. Already owning two horses, housed in a stylish stable on five acres near the yuppie haven of Boulder, Colorado, West soon discovered that ownership of two horses does not equal twenty miles of fence, 3,200 deeded acres, 400 BLM acres, 154 head of black angus, two and a half miles of the North Laramie River--and what would become for him the very best of times. Little did West know how those years would test him, inspire him, and lead him back to his true character.

A Trout Fisherman's Soul
Author: Tony Dincau
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1665515058
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
When his father and grandfather introduced him to trout fishing at the Flag River in the wilds of northern Wisconsin, eight-year-old Tony was—in a word—hooked. Stream fishing and its sense of exploration quickly took hold, and the thrill of catching the elusive trout by drifting a worm stuck with him forever. However, spending family time together proved to be even more rewarding. A brush with mortality inspired the now-grown Tony to write A Trout Fisherman’s Soul, a light-hearted memoir that passionately describes how four generations of family trout fishermen built a rich tradition on the Flag River near Lake Superior. Tony lovingly describes a trip with his brother and their two sons, intermingled with flashbacks to times spent fishing with his father and grandfather. He feels an even deeper kinship with them when he realizes he has become the person passing on the family’s passion for the sport. A true testament to tradition, A Trout Fisherman’s Soul reveals that in the end it’s not the catch that feeds the soul, but the love of family. "An intimate, entrancing sketch of a family that found joy and affirmation in nature." -Kirkus Reviews
