As an allegory about evangelism, this book is not about fishing, but about fishing for men. While a few of the stories are from the author's own life, all of the stories portray the general Christian approach to evangelism. As you read Adventures in Fishing for Men, you will see yourself in many of the stories, and will either be set free from some of the strange methods of modern evangelistic practices, or you will become upset at how your cherished traditions are being portrayed.
