{"product_id":"the-shining-tides-a-novel-1","title":"The shining tides, a novel","description":"This New York Times bestseller, set in 1950s New England, has an appeal that extends beyond the realm of the fishing aficionado to anyone who appreciates a fascinating and well-crafted story.\"With this breezy, invigorating narrative, Win Brooks has produced not just another story about fishing, but one that will appeal to those who have never wet a line…a crackerjack of a novel.\" -The Lewiston Daily Sun\"'The Shining Tides' … could easily be advertised as a textbook on striped bass fishing… It concerns very human beings, and their troubles, and it has a complicated plot, woven expertly and without gathers or loose ends, like a good shrimp net\" -Saturday Review of Literature\"There's romance, there's a bit of a mystery, there's adventure. And -- for those captured by the magic of the sea to which Rachel Carson provided a key, there's a slender thread of plus interest in the story of an ancient and huge striped bass.\" -Kirkus Reviews\"There seems to be no central character — that is none more important than others, unless it might be the striped bass, Roccus. Father O'Meara, the parish Priest, counterbalances Manuel Riba, the local drunk and general ne’er-do-well. Add two pretty girls, a college professor and a salty fisher man, and you have the ingredients for a story whose background is lively, colorful, adventurous and challenging. The plot moves along swiftly and climaxes in a most exciting way.\" -Wilmington Sunday Star\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00005XVUK\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.B00005XVUK.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Brooks, Win\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Reliant Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46041861521585,"sku":"RDV.B00005XVUK.A","price":15.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0544\/8872\/7729\/files\/B00005XVUK-0_3d19df7a-d2e6-4c15-ac34-70d328be0c87.jpg?v=1752687830","url":"https:\/\/www.reliantbookstore.com\/products\/the-shining-tides-a-novel-1","provider":"Reliant Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
