Summary:
"Trout anglers are some of the most impassioned conservationists in the world, but their cultural divides run deep. Fascinated by the trout fishing urban elite and by the populist backlash that is playing out in one of trout fishing's most rural epicenters, the famed Driftless Area of southwestern Wisconsin, Tim Traver embarks on a journey to take the pulse of modern day trout fishing in America"--back cover.
