Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This quotation book includes angling quotes from Eric Morecambe, HM The Queen Mother, Isaak Walton and Thomas Bewick. Also included are H.E. Bate's awesome description of the predator - the pike, the "J.R. Hartley" debate, Charles Kingsley's descriptions of a chalk stream and an 1800-year-old descr…iption of fly fishing. For every angler, whatever his speciality, this book will attempt to enliven non-fishing days and make readers smile at such cynical definitions of angling as "incessant expectation and perpetual disappointment". The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
