Summary: A "wet dream" personified
Review: ...I paid a small fortune for this book only to read about the perfect vacation.

It is a photographer's dream come true and a fine insight to an area that I will (someday) be able to fly fish.

I'd buy another copy because of the sheer glory of the story, the binding and the (prior to GM) story of travel in the finest engineered car ever built.

If you have the $$$ buy it. Like Garrison Keillor, Mr. Swanson lives his dreams. Too few of us ever do.

Summary: Nor-way you can a-fjord not to read this book!
Review: A book of the reality of fishing. The author captures the attraction and reality of fising for the true enthusiast. The reality; the anticipation of the preperation, the rush to fit pleasure into our crowded lives, the hurt of getting skunked while others succeed. The attraction; the instinct to hunt, the allure of pitting ones knowledge and skill against the instinct of a wild animal, and communion with the elements. All set in Gods own country, Norway. A lovely little book.
