A sparkling collection of reflective, thought-provoking short stories set amidst the spectacular backdrop of Tasmania's wilderness regions and trophy trout waters, 'Frog Call' will delight and challenge anyone who has a passion for the natural environment and our place in it.
These stories of people, relationships, fatherhood, and matters of the heart and soul follow the author's lifelong interaction with the Australian wilderness and love of trout-fishing.
Mirth, passion and hope pervade this intriguing stream of tales about mateship, love, fathering, fishing, cowboy pilots, conservation and conservationists, nymphs, spinners, scruples and wild places, while beneath the surface run some of the bigger universal themes and matters that underlie our day to day existence.
Earthy, profound and as irreverent of the status quo as he is reverent of the bush, Greg French is a gifted storyteller, a legendary angler and a literary thinker who writes with the uncommon grace and clarity that only the timeless and utterly consuming act of fly-fishing can instil.
