"From its intriguing read-me title to its elegiac final sentence, Josh Greenberg's Rivers of Sand is a delightful gem that--whether you are a Michigander or not-- deserves an honored place in every literate fly angler's library, because, like Thoreau, he has managed to make the local universal. Greenberg's accessible, conversational voice delivers the kind of experienced knowledge and wisdom that benefits fly fishers everywhere. It's the next-best thing to spending a day on the water with Josh as your guide, patiently unraveling the mysteries and secrets of fly fishing as you go." --Robert DeMott, ed.

Synopsis
Rivers of Sand is an exploration of the unique techniques needed to fish the waters of Michigan and the Great Lakes region, and a discussion of (and paean to) the region itself., An exploration of the unique techniques needed to fish the waters of Michigan and the Great Lakes region, Rivers of Sand manages to be both a highly-personal discussion of the region as well as a unique and practical guidebook. Drawing on Josh Greenberg's encyclopedic knowledge of the area's geography and waters, as well as his years as a successful guide, Rivers of Sand touches on everything a fly fisher needs to know in order to productively fish some of the most alluring waters in America.
