ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Paperback, 2008). (1890) 2008 modern paperback facsimile reprint. Small 8vo paperback (128 x 203mm). iv pp + xxiv pp + 126 pp. Not illustrated. Very good, second-hand paperback. This is a modern facsimile reprint of no great quality but the text is legible. The papers were as follows:1. The History Of The Piscatorial Society, by R.S. FENNINGS. (This is paginated as part of the introductory material).2. The Useful And Fine Arts In Relation To Fish And Fishing, by S.C. HARDING.3. The Science And Art Of Spinning, by Dr. BRUNTON.4. A Visit To Izaak Walton: An Angler's Dream, by T. CRUMPLEN.5. Some Notes On Fish Culture And The Management Of Fisheries, by R.B. MARSTON.6. The Work Of Francis Francis, by W. SENIOR.7. The World Of Waters, by S.C. HARDING.8. Fish And Fish Life: Past And Present, by T. CRUMPLEN. (This is not listed on the contents page).It is likely that some, or all, of these were also published separately as leaflets.
