I absolutely loved this book's cover, and because I, too, am a fly fisherman, I purchased it for my Kindle.  I wasn't quite sure what to expect, based upon the book's title, but the one thing I was not prepared for was how this book touched me to my very core.  There were some passages, especially in the early going, that actually moved me to tears.  I could readily identify with so many aspects of Mr. Kadish's life experience that it was almost surreal.  I, too, am a child of Brooklyn, drove a limousine, had a number of unrealized career objectives, and was a late bloomer.  Not until I reached my 50th birthday did I ever quite measured up to those demanding "family expectations," and I often find fly fishing on my beloved Catskill streams to be the only reliable source of solace for my soul, which is very needy.  A portion of that need was greatly satisfied by this introspective examination of fishing and its connection to man and the universe.  Thanks, Randy, for the "connection" and a terrific read!
