Rating:  Summary: Great!! Review: What a treat and surprise. I found 'On the Run' a delightful flow of razor-wit-bio-info-britcom with the salt sting of an east wind.
Rating:  Summary: I'm Never Wrong, But... Review: When a friend gave me a copy of "On The Run, I figured that I would skim through it and put it with all the other books that I'll never read again. After all, what do I care about striped bass, or the people who fish for them. I'm never wrong about these things. But this time, I wasn't as right as I'd like to be.This book isn't about fishing. It's about a journey taken by a man who loves to fish and his contacts with a group of similarly-minded and sometimes unusual people. It's very well written and organized by a man with a great eye for detail and a fine sense of humor. Even better, it is replete with facts I never knew. In short, this book is a real page turner. ( started reading it in my porcelain study and only put it down after my feet and legs fell asleep). This book is a definite keeper.
