Moon and Sunn: Memoir of a Fishing Legend and his Son
SHANE SUNN grew up in Ackerman, Mississippi, in the shadow of Moon—his legendary, often absent, and always fishing father. With literary acuity that sometimes reads more like a novel than a memoir, the author recounts exhilarating stories of fishing beside Moon in snakeinfested Mississippi backwaters along with painful accounts of what he endured and internalized when Moon left home yet again in pursuit of the world record Alaskan king salmon.
