VERMONT RIVER by W. D. Wetherell (Lyons & Burford: $12.95; 149 pp.). “Vermont River” has been praised by lovers of the outdoors as a classic of its genre since its initial publication in 1984. After declaring: “The perfect river does not exist. My Vermont river does,” Wetherell takes the reader on a meandering, yearlong tour of a small stream. He recounts the pleasures of fishing for trout in its pools, walking by its rapids and searching for its elusive source in a celebration of the ever-changing beauties of the New England countryside.
