From the Michigan lakeshore where he learned to fish to casting flies in a New Orleans bayou, Schaberg sketches landscapes and fish habitats and shows how fly-fishing allows him to think about coexisting with other species. It offers Schaberg a much-needed source of humility, social isolation, connection with nature, and a reminder of environmental degradation. Rather than centering fishing on trophies, conquest, and travel, he advocates for a \"small-fishing\" that values catching the diminutive fish near one's home. Introspective and personal, \u003ci\u003eFly-Fishing\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates how Schaberg's obsession indelibly shapes how he understands and lives in the wider world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristopher Schaberg is Dorothy Harrell Brown Distinguished Professor of English at Loyola University New Orleans.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 112\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.24 x 7 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 14, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42097132961927,"sku":"9781478019367","price":17.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/9496a5d440fb3cf4fa4265a3832f4daa.webp?v=1732348927","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/fly-fishing-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
