Hook, Line and Sinker by Shelley Klein
For the many millions of people for whom fishing is not merely an enjoyable pastime, but both a philosophy and a way of life, Hook, Line and Sinker presents the finest writing about angling - fiction and non-fiction - from the earliest times to the present day. Here are stories, articles, essays, poems and extracts by, among many others, John Buchan, whose John Macnab is one of the enduring classics of sporting literature; and Ernest Hemingway, whose evocations of big-game fishing remain unrivalled. It also features the great 'Brother of the Angle' himself, Izaak Walton, who produced in The Compleat Angler a book that is both a literary classic and a masterpiece of angling writing. Richly evocative, this quirky selection has something to delight anyone who has ever toyed with rod and line. Above all, the book contains the most entertaining true stories, great characters, astonishing records and inevitable fishermen's tales to be found!| SKU | Unavailable |
