Eben Holden's Last Day A Fishing is a novel written by Irving Bacheller and first published in 1907. The story revolves around Eben Holden, a retired farmer who lives in the countryside of upstate New York. Eben is an old man who is fond of fishing and spends most of his time by the river. The novel describes the last day of Eben's life, which he spends fishing with his grandson, Billy. As they fish, Eben reminisces about his life, telling Billy stories about his youth, his family, and his experiences during the Civil War. Through these stories, the reader learns about Eben's character and the values he holds dear, such as hard work, honesty, and loyalty. The novel also explores the relationship between Eben and Billy, who is a city boy and somewhat disconnected from the rural lifestyle that Eben loves. As they spend the day together, they bond over their shared love of fishing and the stories Eben tells. The book is written in a simple, straightforward style that captures the essence of rural life in America at the turn of the 20th century. It is a heartwarming and nostalgic story that celebrates the joys of family, nature, and tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
