Sound advice, from experience, on how to set up and run an angling club. Well worth reading if you intend to do just this. "...an invaluable work of reference for newly elected officers in existing clubs, and for those concerned in setting up and running a new club. There is a complete description of all the usual functions and the special ones of the Sea Commodore, the Freshwater Captain, the Match Secretary, the Cup Custodian, and the Fish Recorder. The senior officers such as Secretary and Treasurer are discussed in detail, while the Chairman's chapter includes a guide to the procedure necessary for him to control a meeting using the rules of debate."
