Excerpt from The Forest
The first response to the red god’s summons is almost invariably the production Of a fly-book and the complete rearrangement of all its contents. The next is a resumption Of practice with the little pistol. The third, and last, is pencil and paper, and lists Of grub and duffel, and estimates of routes and expenses, and correspondence With men who Spell queerly, bear down heavily with blunt pencils, and agree to be at Black Beaver Portage on a certain date. Now, though the February snow and sleet still shut him in, the spring has drawn very near. He can feel the warmth of her breath rustling through his reviving memories.
