A River Runs Through Me

Tracing the shifts and moods of four seasons along Scotland's River Tweed, Andrew Douglas-Home weaves a story of a close relationship with salmon. Threaded through the year are stories too of one of the country's oldest families; stories of politics, military service, culture and the stewardship of our natural world.  Through vivid vignettes and family memories, Andrew Douglas Home spins a homely, yet forthright and dryly witty narrative; both the perfect companion for those who love river fishing and a detailed and informative take on preservation and conservaion; looking back at age-old practices and traditions and looking forward to what we must do to secure the future of the Atlantic salmon and their rivers. 

Ideal for readers interested in true stories and heroism.
