Revue de presse

CD Syndicated Radio (Vancouver, BC), Sept. 1, 2005 "This book only adds to the appeal of the sport, but in ways it probably didn't intend to. Certainly the nuts and bolts specifics are offered up here in big, grand, exhaustively detailed fashion, but it's the gem-like quality of the hardware that impresses. These gorgeous baubles and trinkets are stunning to look at and lovingly catalogued in a book that's both a surprisingly informative academic history and the closest a guy can get to a jewelry store catalogue without feeling stupid. The text and archival photography are perfectly complemented by a nice, deservedly oversized format."

Présentation de l'éditeur

Rapala - the very name evokes quiet mornings on a mist-shrouded lake, family expeditions in a well-worn rowboat, and - best of all- the thrilling moment when a fish explodes out of the water. This richly illustrated book tells the story of a remarkable company and the iconic angling products they produce. Rapala lures are now sold in 140 countries and are more world-record fish than any other lure. It is the dominant company in a hugely popular sport enjoyed by 44 million recreation anglers in the U.S. alone - more people than play golf or tennis combined.
