Written on Water: Essays on Idaho Rivers

""Choose a river. Any river... no particular theme, no set direction, certainly no political agenda. Write an essay in the direction the river takes you."" Thus Mary Clearman Blew (Bone Deep in Landscape), professor of English and creative writing at the University of Idaho, Moscow, commissioned writing for the collection Written on Water: Essays on Idaho Rivers. Pieces by Claire Davis, Kim Barnes, Robert Wrigley, Joy Passanante and 15 others evince the authors' manifold romances with the Little Salmon, the Selway, the Lower Snake and other rivers that grace Idaho.
