Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. William J., Schaldach (illustrator). First Edition. William J. Schaldach's Currents & Eddies is a hybrid of angling memoir, naturalist observation, and visual art?an artist?angler's record of waters fished, fish pursued, and the moods of the outdoors. The book blends reflective essays with Schaldach's own illustrations, capturing trout streams, game fish, and the quiet rituals of field and water. Across its chapters, Schaldach writes with the sensibility of both a sportsman and a painter: attentive to light, movement, seasons, and the personalities of fish. Episodes range from early memories and formative days on the water to mature reflections on technique, ethics, and the aesthetics of angling. The tone is contemplative, steeped in mid?century sporting literature's reverence for solitude, craftsmanship, and the natural world. The first edition is notable for its high production values?quality paper, strong typography, and well?reproduced B&W and color plates?making it as much an art object as a fishing book. For collectors, it stands as one of the classic American illustrated angling titles of the 1930s-40s era.

First published in 1951, TALES OF QUAILS 'N SUCH is a collection of stories which are, as described upon the dj's front flap, "for people who revel in simple things - a bevy of quail scudding over tawny broom sedge; a staunch dog silhouetted against the setting sun; a night's untroubled sleep; the soft swish of a paddle at sunrise; a cooling drink from a sequestered spring at noon-tide." An avid hunter and fisherman, Dr. Babcock was a frequent contributor to magazines such as Field and Stream, Sports Afield, and Outdoor Life and, upon joining the faculty at the University of South Carolina in 1926, served as head of the Department of English from 1939 to his retirement in 1964.
