"Like Richard Brautigan's Trout Fishing in America and Ernest
Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, Nichols's beautifully written
tale is as much about the human condition, man's wanna-be-reverent
relationship with nature, and engrossing storytelling as it is
about fishing."--Las Cruces Sun-News
"Nichols is once again a winner with this novel, which is filled
with . . . gems."--Taos News
"The inimitable Nichols returns with his thirteenth novel, a
delightfully digressive tale of camaraderie, nature, and cutthroat
machismo. . . . In this uncompromising look into the male ego,
Nichols is as waggish as ever, keeping the pages
turning."--Booklist
"The most recent example of why [Nichols] is a New Mexico literary
treasure."--Albuquerque Journal
