HOOKED! FISHING MEMORIES. By George Melly.

THE (ALMOST) COMPLEAT ANGLER: OR PROOF THAT THERE IS MORE TO FISHING THAN JUST CATCHING FISH.

1985 1st edition. Square 8vo (211 x 204mm). Pp96. B/w photographs and illustrations. Green boards, spine titled in gilt.

Angling odds and ends; a treasury of fishing in pictures from the time of Isaak Walton to present day, taken from Timothy Benn's collection of angling art, post-cards and ephemera. "It is in no sense a formal history but rather, a series of glimpses into the past, using painting, cartoons, cards, catalogues and vignettes culled from a prodigious variety of sources. There are notes on the great anglers of bygone ages, the most celebrated books, the famous tacklemakers and their products, and much more besides."
