Description:
ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1948). 1948 1st edition. Small 8vo (128 x 190mm). Ppvi,98. B/w photograph frontispiece, b/w illustrations. Fawn cloth, spine titled in brown. Very good in poor dust-wrapper with large area of loss to front panel. "First published in 1948, an influential and practical book on floating line salmon fishing by season and different water conditions. This little book by a Dee ghillie gives the fruit of a life's experience and will be of the greatest value and interest not only to the novice fisherman but also (by way of reminder and confirmation) to experts. Mr Hill knows his craft; and fortunately he is able to get it across in an extraordinarily clear and readable manner. There are diagrams to illustrate practical points where words might fail. Like most anglers Mr Hill is something of a naturalist, and a great lover of life on the river bank. The frontispiece shows him with the tame blackbird which returned to converse with him year after year. This is a book which we can confidently recommend to salmon fishers young and old."
