ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2014). 2014 1st edition. 4to (186 x 256mm). Pp373,ad. Colour photographs, b/w illustrations by Suzanne Lane and Ian Webber, decorative end-papers. Black boards, spine titled in silver-gilt. Fine copy in dust-wrapper. Signed by the author. The second book in Pete Springate's on-going three-volume autobiography. The first, Carp Side of the Moon, was published in 2012. "From the capture of a record-shaking Wraysbury carp, to the loss of a river monster that still leaves him shaking; from the birth of his first child, Kat, to the death of his Mum and Dad, these highs and lows don't just involve his fishing, but have an equal impact in all facets of his life - as they do for all of us. This book details Pete's journey from wild, uncharted inland seas, to wild, untamed British rivers, and the many lessons you need to learn if you want to become, not only a highly respected carp angler, but a hugely successful specimen hunter. Massive bream and tench from large, windswept lakes are greeted with as much joy as specimen-sized roach and barbel from winding, Sussex rivers. But through it all, carp are the pinnacle for Pete, and he reaches that pinnacle in both size and quality on numerous occasions. In more ways than one, the journey that Pete takes us on is strewn with pitfalls and boulders, and the eventual destination is tantalisingly out of sight, but have no doubt, this is a journey we all need to take if we want to reach one of those pinnacles. Pete, as ever, is still pioneering." A great deal on Wraysbury and Horton along with various Colne Valley pits and Sussex rivers such as the Arun and Rother. . Seller Inventory # 56907
