TROUT AND TROUTING. By David Scholes.

.# 1993 1st edition. 4to (186 x 246mm). Pp88. B/w photographs by Peter Whyte, photograph end-papers. Brown boards, spine titled in white.

.# Another highly regarded, and quite hard-to-find, book from David Scholes". David Scholes does not write how-to books, but his accounts are so rich in trout lore and his experience so great, gathered over thousands of fishing days throughout the world, that the reader, be he or she a beginner or angler of long standing, cannot help learning. His stories of success and failure of yore, and his thoughts of the future are so splendidly written that it is easy to understand why his books are so popular. This one is the direct result of his profound sympathy for a dying angler, who, through his grateful words of praise, persuaded him, as he says in his preface: 'to try on more time to write further trouty words with the hope that they might bring smiles in some cases and peace of mind in others.' This he has done in a unique and successful way by gathering the subjects, large or small, into groups to form chapters that sometimes charm, sometimes reveal new information and at others contain wit known only to fishermen".
