Carefully selected excerpts from the writings of the author of the classic American Angler's Book of 1864. "It was regarded as the foremost reference work well into the next century, and Norris is still affectionately evoked for his amazing breadth of knowledge, his friendly sense of humour, and his extraordinary grasp not only of how to catch fish but why we anglers are so passionate about doing so. .From his wise portrayal of the many types of anglers to the biology and behaviour of the native American brook trout, Norris set a standard for American angling thought that educated and inspired succeeding generations. his essay on essay on the joys of fly fishing alone is .a milestone of angling philosopy that set the tone for .many later writers from Arnold Gingrich to Ernest Schwiebert to John Gierach." A well-designed and nicely presented new edition which provides an excellent preliminary to further exploration of the work of Thaddeus Norris. PREVIOUS PRICE GBP 12.95.…
