Jack McAllister has it all.
A free and easy bachelor's life in the mountains of Pennsylvania near a trout stream.
This unconventional existence he's carved out for himself amounts to fishing with longtime pal Soothsayer, the wizened sage of the Green Spring Valley, and guiding fly fishing clients.
But his trout bum life is soon to change with the sudden and mysterious appearance of a mayfly hatch.
Soon, the Shad River and the whole remote valley become a destination spot for too many fly fishermen and sudden commercial interests.
By the time, an intrepid reporter, a slick and fast-talking attorney, and a lovely magazine editor enter Jack's life, things have become more than complicated.
Fishing for Sanity is an often-humorous story, capturing a place, a way of life and the inevitable changes we all face.
Like A River Runs Through It, it's more than a fishing novel, but a life story, about people and choices and love set amidst the great outdoors of trout country.
