| Publisher Description: Originally published in 1920, this wonderful collection of fishing anecdotes provides an interesting read even today. The editor has selected extracts, chapters and poems from the best fishing and naturalist literature and curated into this fascinating volume. It includes writings from the likes of H. T. Sheringham, William Cobbett, Thomas Tod Stoddard, G. A. B. Dewar and many more. This book would make a fantastic gift for the keen fisherman of today as an insight into times gone by. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. |
