ND (c.1925). No publisher. Small 4to. (170 x 225mm). Pp38. Typescript with 7 actual photographs. Green cloth with gilt title to upper board. Inner hinge tender but very good.
Notes: Memories of fishing in Berkshire and on the Thames. Mostly for pike (The author's largest weighed 27lb.), but including a chapter on perch, one on Thames trout, and one on sea fishing in Cornwall. "The best season I ever had or hope for was the hot summer of 1921. I had the most wonderful luck with Thames trout; for the first week I came home with a fish every evening, six in the week, weighing 24lbs." He went on to finish the season with twelve trout weighing 47lbs. "This book is well bound, and printed on beautiful paper. I should imagine it was issued for private circulation only. The type is double spaced and printed on one side of each page only; and the first-class reproductions of photographs of fish and tackles are, to my way of thinking, the hallmark of good production." (O.M. Reed in Angling, April 1950).
