{"product_id":"cast-in-the-woods","title":"Cast in the Woods","description":"When angler and author Stephen Sautner bought a streamside cabin and some land in the heart of fly fishing country in the Catskill Mountains, he thought he had finally reached angling nirvana. Little did he know what loomed: a series of historical floods, a land rush over fracking for natural gas, and constant battles with invasive species, plagues of insects, and other pests. He takes on all of these threats – between casts for wild trout and other gamefish – and along the way gains a better understanding of stewardship and the interconnectedness between angling and the natural world. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePraise for A Cast in the Woods:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“New York State's ban on fracking was one of the great triumphs of modern environmentalism, and behind it lay a thousand individual stories of resistance. None has been better told than this one, by a worthy Catskills heir to the literary tradition of John Burroughs and a man who has earned his fishing.”--Bill McKibben, author Radio Free Vermont\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“If you love wild woods and wild trout, Sautner’s word magic will transport you to the best of both. His battle to preserve them from a daunting array of natural and unnatural forces amuses even as it instructs and inspires.” --Ted Williams, outdoor writer and environmental journalist","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54224960848216,"sku":"9781493057771","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781493057771_712db49c-cb4b-49ed-a051-3534189a1ae1.jpg?v=1757097041","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/cast-in-the-woods","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
