Description for Noodling for Flatheads: Moonshine, Monster Catfish and other Southern Comforts
Hardcover. Fine in fine dustwrapper, else a good clean copy with some minor shelf wear
Burkhard Bilger's beautifully written, wonderfully funny and movingly nostalgic book explores the surviving (and often dying) folk traditions of the American South, from the eating of squirrel brains in Kentucky, cock-fighting in Oklahoma, frog-ranching in Georgia and coon-hunting all over, to the noodling for flatheads (fishing for catfish, using your fingers as bait and your arm as a hook) of the title.
