Sobre este item

New York / London: Paddington Press Ltd. Very Good/Very Good. 1978. Hard Cover. 8vo 0709205139 Dust jacket complete, unclipped. Original cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks.352 pages clean and tight. THE ANGLER'S COMPANION is a treasury of the finest fishing writing of all time. It contains a rich and entertaining variety of angling stories, anecdotes, poems and articles by an impressive array of the world's great writers. Here is the lore and tradition; the skill and passion; the anticipation and joy; the humor and pathos of the world of angling. It is not surprising that so diverse a sport has inspired such an abundance of literature. There are famous fishing stories such as R. D. Blackmore's "Crocker's Hole," which have become classics of the genre. There are humorous tales from Rudyard Kipling and Henry van Dyke. There is a wealth of lore and tradition from such great anglers as Izaak Walton and H. D. Thoreau. And there are the works of the literary giants through the ages: Theocritus, Washington Irving, Sir Walter Scott, John Keats, Robert Louis Stevenson, Guy de Maupassant, Anton Chekhov, Ernest Hemingway and many more. Few pastimes can compete with the lure of fishing, but as small compensation for the resting angler, what could be better than to read about fishing. These writers have recreated the pastoral beauty and solitude which often accompanies the sport. Their tales also contain useful hints from the masters and no angler can resist reading about the mishaps and disasters experienced by even the most accomplished. THE ANGLER'S COMPANION is an essential addition to the tackle box to be enjoyed in small portions between' catches or contemplated at length between fishing trips. Here is a true and stimulating companion for anyone who fishes. .
