Backcast : Fatherhood, Fly-Fishing, and a River Journey through the Heart of Alaska

In "Backcast", Lou Ureneck transforms a trip with his son, Adam, down a wilderness river into the heartfelt story of a father struggling to hold on to his son at a crucial moment in their lives. Encountering bears, rapids, turbulent weather and a mysteriously braiding river, Ureneck and Adam are sometimes at war with each other in their raft as they travel toward a deeper understanding of themselves and each other. "Backcast" explores the beauty of nature and its meaning in one man's life. It also maps the complexities of the human heart and conveys the fragility and strength of relationships.
