Leaving behind a job as a public school teacher, acclaimed writer Scott Sadil (rhymes with cradle)began building Tamalita, a lug-rigged beach yawl suitable for exploring the remote tidewaters of Baja California's Magdalena Bay. Before he could finish planking his new boat, however, Sadil received an email from Gray's Sporting Journal, for the past fifty years America's preeminent hunting and fishing magazine. Gray's needed a writer of Sadil's stature to take over the duties of their angling editor. Would he be interested in applying for the job?
A Matter of Style: Flyfishing into the Winds of Change brings together Sadil's columns and feature stories written over his first half decade with Gray's. The author of six previous books, including fiction and nonfiction, Sadil has received wide-reaching praise as both a stylist and humorist, a literary writer whose essays and short stories have been compared favorably with the works of Thomas McGuane, Ted Leeson, Charley Waterman, and other writers of traditional and contemporary outdoor literature.
For readers of Gray's, here's the chance to revisit and share all of Scott Sadil's work as the journal's angling editor for the past five years. For anyone else who enjoys the sport of flyfishing, or simply reading about freshwater and saltwater angling adventures from points near and far, A Matter of Style: Flyfishing into the Winds of Change should rise immediately to the top of your must-read book list, an opportunity to pay witness to the spirited highs and lows of flyfishing in our volatile world today.
