"Nick Lyons Books is a division of Ernest Benn, New York and London." The season-long pursuit of a gigantic one-eyed trout. A graphic and meditative look at the passionate angler caught helpless- or nearly so- in the thrall of his quarry. "With marvellous wit, a sharp eye for detail and exquisite parody, and an unfailing sense of the ridiculous, Humphrey has written a remarkable and memorable little book."
