Hardcover. Etat : Fine. First Edition/First Printing. We are pleased to present here a beautiful copy of "The American Shad" by John McPhee. An Edition of 500 copies that have been SIGNED by John McPhee on a special page. In a beautiful slipcase. This is a collection of pieces from John McPhee's "The Founding Fish" in an elegant, beautifully illustrated Meadow Run Press edition. With vivid and spirited prose, McPhee masterfully weaves together the shad's natural history, his own angling history with the fish, along with the history of the early American settlers and the critical importance of this fish to their very existence. This is a large and compelling story. The misery and hunger of George Washington's troops at Valley Forge are palpable through McPhee's pen, as is their joy and salvation in the annual shad migration up the Delaware and Schuylkill rivers. Early Philadelphia comes alive with vendors' shouts of "Shad-e-o! Shad-e-o!" announcing newly-arrived fish. And with fly rod in hand, the author travels to the Miramichi in advance of the Atlantic salmon run for some remarkable, memorable shad fishing - unknown to most fly fisherman. Signed by Author(s).
