Description:
Izaak Walton set the standard for fishermen more than 300 years ago with his memoir, The Compleat Angler. It is the most often reprinted book in the English language after the Bible and the works of Shakespeare -- more than 400 editions in 300 years. James Prosek, a student at Yale and an obsessed fishing enthusiast, decided to follow in Walton's footsteps. Traveling to England to fish in the same streams that Walton made famous, Prosek weaves the lore of fishing history into the context of modern England, where many of Walton's streams are now privately held, and access to them is generally restricted. With its splendid writing and breathtaking full-color original artwork and maps created by the author, The Complete Angler is for fishing and travel enthusiasts, as well as Anglophiles, worldwide.
