Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Etat : New. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2006). (1906) 2006 2nd Medlar issue Small 8vo hardback (142 x 200mm). Pp196. B/w vignette illustrations by Paul Cook. Volume II of the Medlar Classics Series. Green cloth, spine titled in gilt. Very good copy in slightly rubbed dust-wrapper. This is the second Medlar Angling Classics issue. Initially only a few copies were produced in paperback before the publishers relaunched the series in this higher quality cloth binding with an attractive dust-wrapper. "This volume does not pretend to be a guide to fishing, in the ordinary cut-and-dried sense of the term; but in its pages I take you into my confidence, and talk to you as one old fisherman talks to his mates, telling you what I saw on the various waters, the fish I found, how I succeeded and how I failed. This book is a plain statement of fact and personal experiences, the pages of which furnish glimpses of natural history, descriptions of the waters and their characteristics, scenery and surroundings, together with a few historical notes connected therewith, which will perhaps have more than a passing interest for the wandering angler." Chapters include: Introductory remarks; The roach fisherman of the Fens; Bush fishing for perch (on the banks of the Witham); Trouting in a tiny brook (the Nottinghamshire Greet); A winter's day down the Lower Trent; The Lower Trent (piscatorially and historically considered); A Christmas dish (winter chub fishing); A New Year's bag (thoughts and experiences on the Great Ouse); Days among the barbel (on the Trent, Thames, and Kennet); With the chub, and a fly rod; Eddy and stream (cadbaits and wasp-grubs in the early summer); Pikey days and pikey ways; The postman's knock - dibbling with insects, alive and dead; Days and nights with the bream; By lake and mere; Concerning roach; A mixed basket. .
