Description
The digital edition of all books may be viewed on our website before purchase. Izaak Walton's The Complete Angler is primarily a guide to fly fishing, however it is much more than just a fishing book. Within the pages of this text, the art of fishing is beautifully accompanied by poems, folklore and interesting anecdotes. Walton paints the picture of what it truly is to enjoy fishing - never claiming to be a master on the subject but encouraging the reader to embrace the sport wholeheartedly. Since its first publication in 1653, the book has been continually in print and is admired for inspiring the fisherman to love fishing for the sake of fishing.
The Complete Angler is not only a definitive work on the subject of fishing but also an archaic example of the popular pastime. A brilliant read not only for the avid angler but also for those looking to glimpse through a window into a bygone era. It is still a highly relevant book but also a lovely piece of work.
