Book Description
“Beautiful. ... A lyrical companion to his father’s classic, A River Runs through It, chronicling their family’s history and bond with Montana’s Blackfoot River.” —Washington Post A "poetic" and "captivating" (Publishers Weekly) memoir about the power of place to shape generations, Home Waters is John N. Maclean's remarkable chronicle of his family's century-long love affair with Montana's majestic Blackfoot River, the setting for his father's classic novella, A River Runs through It. Maclean returns annually to the simple family cabin that his grandfather built by hand, still in search of the trout of a lifetime. When he hooks it at last, decades of longing promise to be fulfilled, inspiring John, reporter and author, to finally write the story he was born to tell. A book that will resonate with everyone who feels deeply rooted to a landscape, Home Waters is a portrait of a family who claimed a river, from one generation to the next, of how this family came of age in the 20th century and later as they scattered across the country, faced tragedy and success, yet were always drawn back to the waters that bound them together. Here are the true stories behind the beloved characters fictionalized in A River Runs through It, including the Reverend Maclean, the patriarch who introduced the family to fishing; Norman, who balanced a life divided between literature and the tug of the rugged West; and tragic yet luminous Paul (played by Brad Pitt in Robert Redford’s film adaptation), whose mysterious death has haunted the family and led John to investigate his uncle’s murder and reveal new details in these pages. A universal story about nature, family, and the art of fly fishing, Maclean’s memoir beautifully captures the inextricable ways our personal histories are linked to the places we come from—our home waters. Featuring twelve wood engravings by Wesley W. Bates and a map of the Blackfoot River region.

Book Description
This is the tale of a small fish forced to flee his homeland after unexpected tragedy strikes. His arduous journey to the sea becomes a crucible, forging invaluable life lessons along the way. But no experience proves more formative than his struggle to liberate a school of fish from the ruthless reign of a tyrannical, self-appointed religious leader. In this decisive battle that pits oppression against freedom, the fish and his companion come to grasp the true significance of liberty and its precious fragility. As he continues toward the safety of the boundless ocean, our young hero carries deep convictions about the dignity of free will, individual choice, and the courage to defend them, timeless virtues purchased through sacrifice no matter one’s size or strength. With resonance across the political and the personal, The Mystery of Freedom renders universal truths through the eyes of the smallest among us.
