John Gierach, a most popular and prolific author of fish tales, spins his way here for what should be another delightful, engaging reading appearance. He visits with his newest, Fool's Paradise (Simon & Schuster). "This addition to Gierach's long list of fishing books is ... definitely a keeper. Gierach gets back to the basics of fishing in a collection of personal essays in which he contends that fishing is as much about being outdoors with a few friends who share the same passion as it is about catching fish ... With the simple grace and native wisdom he is known for, Gierach always gets back around to fishing and pays special attention to the fish themselves, sharing his encyclopedic knowledge of North American fish, their feeding habits and their exquisite colorings." – Publishers Weekly.
