An evocative account of one man’s life spent fishing on arguably the world’s best salmon river; a story of family, tradition, conservation and the Scottish countryside.
Tracing th shifts and moods of four seasons along Scotland's River Tweed, Andrew Douglas-Home weaves a story of a close relationship with nature and one of its most iconic denizens;the salmon. Threaded through the year are stories too of one of the country's oldest families; stories of politics, military service, culture and the stewardship of our natural world. |
