The Woods, Books, and Truant Officers*

The title of Maclean’s essay “The Woods, Books, and Truant Officers” reflects his penchant for triadic structures, which is appropriate in an essay that reviews Maclean’s devotion to rhythm in language. In the essay, Maclean describes his home-schooling regimen (during the mornings of his elementary school years) and his father’s influence over Maclean’s language, even claiming him as “co-author of the title of this book, A River Runs through It.” The essay reads as a companion to Maclean’s first book, and in it he offers close readings of the Twenty-third Psalm and the opening sentence of USFS 1919 that illustrate his professorial dedication to prose rhythms.
