Book Description
"Jennifer Olsson had a busy life in Bozeman, Montana. Mother to a young son and running a tackle shop alongside her husband, she was also much in demand as a fly-fishing guide. Then a letter arrived from a Swedish river-keeper named Lars. He had found Jennifer's name in a brochure and thought that inviting this well-known American fishing guide to visit his stretch of river--once nearly ruined by logging and now making a comeback--might be a terrific public relations coup. At first, Jennifer considered tossing the letter out with the junk mail. Lars, however, was persistent. Late one night he called to follow up. Listening to his voice on the answering machine, Jennifer made one of those decisions that change life instantly and forever. She picked up the phone and said she would come. This wonderful memoir provides us with a true "and then ..." story. Jennifer went to Sweden and fell in love--with the country, the river, and with its keeper"--Publisher's description.
