He fished the lakes and creeks near the family's summer home at Walloon Lake, Michigan, and his first stories and pieces of journalism were often about his favorite sport. Here, collected for the first time in one volume, are all of his great writings about the many kinds of fishing he did--from angling for trout in the rivers of northern Michigan to fishing for marlin in the Gulf Stream. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eA Moveable Feast\u003c\/i\u003e, Hemingway speaks of sitting in a café in Paris and writing about what he knew best--and when it came time to stop, he \"did not want to leave the river.\" The story was the unforgettable classic, \"Big Two-Hearted River,\" and from its first words we do not want to leave the river either. He also wrote articles for the \u003ci\u003eToronto Star\u003c\/i\u003e on fishing in Canada and Europe and, later, articles for \u003ci\u003eEsquire\u003c\/i\u003e about his growing passion for big-game fishing. His last books, \u003ci\u003eThe Old Man and the Sea\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eIslands in the Stream\u003c\/i\u003e, celebrate his vast knowledge of the ocean and his affection for its great denizens. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eHemingway on Fishing\u003c\/i\u003e is an encompassing, diverse, and fascinating collection.
