Item description from seller

A beautiful copy of Samuel Taylor's Angling in All its Branches, Reduced to a Complete Science. First edition, published in 1800. Printed by A. Strahan. Excellent brown half leather binding with lovely marbling to boards. Spine has blind and gilt tooled, raised bands and bright, clear gilt lettering. There are some very minors marks to the exterior, such as to the corners of the boards, though these are hardly noticeable and the copy is in an excellent, bright, clean condition overall. Endpapers and page edges are coloured. There is notable foxing to the title page and the following 5 pages, but this disappears by page 10. Some very minor foxing is present throughout, otherwise all text is clear and in very good condition. Overall an excellent and attractive copy of a very interesting book on angling. From the library of Ronald Herbert Savory. A bookplate is present on the front endpaper bearing his name and coat of arms. Seller Inventory #002578.

Store description

A small specialist bookseller with a passion for all aspects of the countryside, from farming to natural history, field sports and forestry. Particular fascination with all things to do with the history of the countryside. In searching for countryside gems, I often come across books wholly unrelated to my specialism and am always looking for great homes for these books. We are based in the Derbyshire Peak District and can source specialist books from this area. We also specialise in finding special books for gifts. So, if he special person in your life, or someone you would like to say thank you, has a particular interest and you have a budget, we can find a special book that means something to them. If they love birds and live in Kent, we will find something for you. If their passion is dairy cows, then we can find a book that tells the story of dairy farming in Britain. Working to a budget, we might be able to source a First Edition 'Origin of Species' (a big budget) or the biography of a pioneer in farming, natural history or field sports (a more modest budget). Because we know about books and are well networked, we can make an individual present special and meaningful.…
