If you think fishing is a simple matter of casting off from a river bank with a rod and reel then you are about to find out it is much more than that. Obsessive fisherman Kevin Ireland recounts how the sport is a passionate love affair with the natural world. Since getting hooked as a boy, Ireland has punted on wild Irish lakes, clambered over medieval abbeys, trawled through old texts, and spent several thousand hours actually fishing. This book he says, is the sum total of all he now knows, or will ever know about catching a fish.

The star of the Animal Planet's River Monsters and author of the bestselling companion book shares a meditation on fishing--and life. In his previous book, Jeremy Wade memorably recounted his adventures in pursuit of fish of staggering proportions and terrifying demeanor: goliath tigerfish from the Congo, arapaima from the Amazon, "giant devil catfish" from the Himalayan foothills, and more. Now, the greatest angling explorer of his generation returns to delight readers with a book of a different sort, the book he was always destined to write -- the distillation of a life spent fishing. As Jeremy's catches attract increasing attention, many people ask him how they can improve their own fishing results. This book is his reply: part science, part art, and part elusive something else -- which is within every angler's ability to develop. Along the way you will learn when to let instinct override logic, which details are vital and which may be irrelevant, and how a "non result" can be a result. Thoughtful and funny, brimming with wisdom and, above all, adventure, these are pitch-perfect reflections that anyone who has ever fished will identify with, for ultimately they touch on the simple, fundamental principles that apply to all angling -- and to life.

“A necessary book for anyone truly interested in what we take from the sea to eat, and how, and why.” —Sam Sifton, The New York Times Book Review Acclaimed author of American Catch and The Omega Princple and life-long fisherman, Paul Greenberg takes us on a journey, examining the four fish that dominate our menus: salmon, sea bass, cod, and tuna. Investigating the forces that get fish to our dinner tables, Greenberg reveals our damaged relationship with the ocean and its inhabitants. Just three decades ago, nearly everything we ate from the sea was wild. Today, rampant overfishing and an unprecedented biotech revolution have brought us to a point where wild and farmed fish occupy equal parts of a complex marketplace. Four Fish offers a way for us to move toward a future in which healthy and sustainable seafood is the rule rather than the exception.

Ali Stephenson has it all--a secure position at Southern Style Magazine where she's risen to the ranks of managing editor, and all the trappings that a six-figure salary makes possible. She has good friends, practices yoga daily, and takes long strolls on the beach near her home on the Chesapeake Bay. Yet, little does she know, she's about to be set-up to take over Joe Driscoll's role as publisher. Before that occurs, however, Joe sends Ali on assignment to write about fly fishing on the Lower Laguna Madre in deep South Texas. There, Ali is forced to face a past that she has been diligently keeping at bay. Like many women, Ali has a history of choosing unavailable men, stemming from childhood wounding by an abusive father who murdered her mother, leaving her to be raised by her grandparents in the Blue Ridge Mountains. However, all of that changes when the feisty lodge owner, Mama Kate, who has a deep devotion to the divine feminine, challenges Ali to face her demons and embrace her inner wisdom. The Whispered Teachings of Grandmother Trout is best described as the feminine version of A River Runs Through It, combining nature, spirituality, and the complexity of navigating human relationships. While it is a woman's coming of age novel, men connect with the prominent male characters, especially Captain Jack Cooper, Ali's fly-fishing guide, and Gus Gammons, Mama Kate's faithful companion, whose complicated relationship with Kate mirrors Ali's resistance to trust her.
