The Last Best Day is not a book about how to fly fish, but instead about what fly fishing means and how it feels and where it can lead, both in body and in spirit. Its 40 stories are strung together only loosely and may be taken individually or as a whole. Collectively they lead from the creeks and rivers of the Appalachians, to the high country and deserts streams of the American Southwest, to the great slamon, rainbow and grayling waters of Alaska, and then back to "the little brook trout stream where the snow monster lives." They take you to places you may never have dared venture - and in the end they take you home. But wherever they take you, you will remember the journey.
