ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1905). (1888) 1905 4th edition. 8vo (140 x 220mm). Ppvi,ii,ii,ii,332,v + viii diary pages + 11 b/w plates + vii ads. B/w plates and maps (some folding), text illustrations. Binding B: Plain brown cloth, spine titled in gilt. Frontispiece map and preliminary pages to title-page detached but laid in, hinges tender, owner's name to all maps and several pages, rather browned and used. Good only. Stillwater and river fishing in the Punjab, with an emphasis on mahseer. Part II contains an extensive list of fishing venues, many of which are outside the Punjab, such as Afghanistan, Kumaon, Kashmir, Assam and Burma. First published in 1888 with a second edition following in 1890. The third edition, 1895, was revised and enlarged by Dr. Eugene Cretin following the death of the author in 1894, aged just 38. This re-titled fourth edition was, again, revised by Dr. Cretin "In the present edition of the 'North Punjab Fishing Club Anglers' Handbook' the title has been changed to 'Anglers' Handbook for India', because the original title was thought to be too long, and the first half was an anachronism. .After the departure of Captain Lacy from Rawalpindi, the Club died a natural death. And after the death of Captain Lacy, Messrs. W. Newman & Co. bought the copyright of his book. Captain Lacy was one of the best fishermen that India has seen, and his ideas on fishing deserve to be preserved. The chapters written by him have, accordingly, been left practically as he wrote them; and bear his name at the head." (From Dr. Cretin's preface to the fourth edition). .
