Synopsis:

A treasury of essays, columns, articles, and letters from an icon of fly fishing's golden age.

From the Back Cover:

Sparse Grey Hackle is the icon of the golden age of fly fishing, the confidant and recorder of the first generation of fly fishers - George LaBranche, Edward Hewitt, Harry and Elsie Darbee, and Vincent Marinaro, to name a few. An Honest Angler is a full and satisfying collection of Sparse's famous and unforgettable essays and the best of his lesser-known newspaper articles, columns, and letters - selected and edited by his daughter. Sparse writes about a wide spectrum of subjects: fly fishing, writing, wild life, track, boating, his military days, and, of course, friends and family. With a moving and humorous biographical foreword by Pat Sherwood, this book is a must for every Sparse Grey Hackle fan, and for anyone interested in angling, sports, and great writing.
