{"product_id":"2940170487004","title":"Fool's Paradise","description":"If John Gierach is living in a fool's paradise, then it's a paradise that his regular readers will recognize and new fans will delight in discovering. Laced with the inimitable blend of wit and wisdom that have made him fly-fishing's foremost scribe, \u003ci\u003eFool's Paradise\u003c\/i\u003e chronicles the fishing life in all its glory (catching your biggest fish ever) and squalor (being stranded in a tent during a soaking rainstorm). In Gierach's world, both experiences are valuable, and perhaps inevitable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFishermen everywhere will understand Gierach's quest to discover and explore new waters, the unlikely appeal of winter fly-fishing, or his dismay at encroaching development. Braving trips on small prop planes and down \"Oh-My-God\" roads, Gierach and his fishing buddies pursue bull trout in British Columbia, steelhead in the Rocky Mountains, and pike so fierce that a wise fisherman wears Kevlar gloves for the obligatory trophy photo.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEqual parts fishing lore, philosophy, and great fish stories, \u003ci\u003eFool's Paradise\u003c\/i\u003e may not be a perfect substitute for actually being out on the water, but it's surely the next best thing.","brand":"Tantor Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47098418168048,"sku":"2940170487004","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170487004_p0.jpg?v=1763807722","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170487004","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
