This article focuses on the book "One Round River: The Curse of Gold and the Fight for the Big Blackfoot," by Richard Manning. In 1976 the University of Chicago Press published its first original fiction title, a collection of two stories and a novella by Norman Maclean, "A River Runs Through It." A film version of this novella introduced western Montana's Blackfoot River--and the trout that lurked beneath its sun-speckled surface--to enchanted movie audiences across the country. Manning knows the Blackfoot intimately, having rafted on it, fished in it, hiked along it and hunted near it. This is a love stow-the kind of love born from a deep respect for the river's mysteries.
