This witty, insightful story reveals the state of humanity through the citizens of Missoula, Montana. The reader meets the haves and have-nots, the cruel and the kind, the trustworthy and the wicked through the eyes of a shy common man, Andy Strobel. His work ethic rises above the lowliness of his job, and he revels in the simple pleasures of fly fishing with his dog Max and wood carving.
Andy’s true character is tested and tempted to the limits when he is thrown into unfamiliar circumstances beyond his education and experience to understand. Will he rise to the challenges or fall? Will he believe people’s words or actions? Will he remain true to himself or change to suit the expectations of others?
Anchored in contemporary Western Montana, the story delves into the history of Indians, explorers, and lumberjacks who forged the wilderness before settlers built the town. The historic development of the place parallels the stages of Andy’s self-awareness, his love of the land, and his attempts to establish his place in it.
Recommended for readers of James Thurber, Richard Paul Evans. Charles Martin, and Norman Maclean.
