This is a wonderful book by Pat Munday about one of the most fabled trout streams in the world, the Big Hole River. Pat is a professor at Montana Tech in Butte and author of the EcoRover Blog (which sadly, seems to have been abandoned).

| Excuse my napkin, I was reading the copy at Quarry Brewing in Butte |
"Montana's Last Best River" has fabulous photography and covers everything from pre-European history to modern day conservation efforts. Pat does a great job guiding the reader down the meandering relationships this amazing river had and still has with the people who've used it and loved it.
Of course, you can't write a book about the Big Hole and not talk about the impact this river has had on fly fishing. Hey, those flies look familiar!!
This is a great book for any history buff, conservationist, and fly fisher. Check out the copy at Quarry Brewing next time your in Butte and be sure to get one for yourself.
