Book First Edition
Condition: new. (Paperback, 1987 ). 1987 1st edition. Small format paperback (111 x 178mm). Pp80. Not illustrated. White card covers printed in black. Slight cockling and shelf wear but internally clean and intact paperback. "David Shaw may be better known to most of us as the forthright columnist in Trout and Salmon magazine. Not known for mincing his words, he has for many years drawn our urgent attention to the appalling misuse of our Atlantic salmon resource. The fact that many who net, trap and generally create a deal of mayhem on the oceans and around our coasts and in our estuaries perform these acts under the strict umbrella of legitimacy does not protect them from David's vitriolic pen. In this new work, David has put the vitriol to one side in a lyrical approach to his own philosophy on salmon angling. His real modesty shines through and it soon becomes obvious that he derives much more satisfaction from being a part of the salmon anglers' overall environment than he does by merely catching fish. If I have any criticism it is that the work is too brief!". From the foreword, by Arthur Oglesby. .

Illustrated glossy card covers. Creasing (7mm) across top corner of upper cover, and light creasing down spine edges, otherwise in very good clean, bright and sound condition. **. The quest for wild fish in wild surroundings . This , as David Shaw sees it, is what angling for the Atlantic salmon is all about. These salmon, and a few sea trout tales provide a vivid , evocation of the power, the grandeur of the salmon s normal wilderness habitat. They add a dimensions of humour, entertainment and informative technical detail. They reveal an insight, a feeling sense of the salmon angler s inner world. Better known to most of us as the forthright columnist in Trout and salmon magazine, David Shaw in this new work has put the vitriol to one side in a lyrical approach to his own philosophy on salmon angling. (Arthur Oglesby).
