Item description from seller

Octavo. ]. 263 pages, index, charts, photographs. The Lonsdale Library was the major guide to outdoor sports for the British Gentleman. Besides this major contribution, they also published books on salmon and trout fishing as well as hunting. The Times Literary Supplement review noted: "[it] is vital guarding against pollution." Albert Hazzard of the Fisheries Institute said it is an essential volume for those in water management relating to trout and salmon. In a sense, it was an early warning against water pollution and careless protection of the environment. Bound in 1/4 brown cloth over light brown cloth, centrally stamped with a crown and L in gilt, spine gilt, in pictorial dust jacket lettered and decorated in red, some soiling to cloth edges, piece torn away from jacket at head. A very good copy.
