bobbo49's review against another edition
5.0
When my best friend told me, on our October/November trip to Montana and North Dakota where I served as photographer while he hunted pheasant and grouse with his German shorthaired pointer, that he actually loved hunting more than fishing - our shared passion of so many days of our adulthood - I was stunned to silence. Then I got home and read Colter - and suddenly I completely understood what he was saying: the shared outdoor experience with his brilliant and beloved dog was simply a kind of mutual magic, whereas flyfishing - as I've often said - is essentially an individual, very personal magic, even if shared with a human friend. Rick Bass couldn't express this any better than in this book, the memoir of his own life, and training of/Montana bird hunts with his dog friend - a German shorthair named Colter.
