River's Robert Gorman featured along with 15 other rodmakers in
'Splitting Cane', by Ed Engle.
"The
old-school bamboo fly-fishing rod, with its irresistibly warm, natural,
and romantic tradition, is explored through conversations with 16
bamboo rodmakers. Profiled in the book are Mike Clark of South Creek,
Ltd.; ... Robert Gorman, Bernard Ramanauskas; Dwight Lyons;
Don Schroeder, and Carl-Johan Anderberg. The author test-casted
the rods and then interviewed the makers to get the story behind
each rod's making. The in-depth stories, along with clear, detailed
descriptions of bamboo rods, and a chapter on rod-making basics
make this an excellent read for all who appreciate a fine bamboo
rod." – Stackpole Books
