Since the publication of \"A River Runs through It\" in 1976, readers and critics have considered it to be one of the most carefully crafted stories in American literature, in terms of both its structure and its style. The beauty of the story came with much hard work. This study traces Maclean's revisions through four handwritten drafts and three typescripts, quoting extensively from previously unpublished material. The analysis of Maclean's composition process lays the foundation for original and detailed discussions of other aspects of Maclean's craft, such as his approach to genre and style. The study publishes for the first time the complete text of the notes that Maclean wrote after the first draft of \"A River Runs through It.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George H.
