1954 1st edition. 4to (180 x 255mm). Pp127. B/w photograph plates throughout. Blue cloth, spine titled in gilt.
"This is a new sort of picture book; indeed it is an altogether fresh approach to the problems and pleasures of fly fishing. As befits so great a step forward in the presentation of the Art, it has been undertaken by Eric Taverner, our foremost angling writer." The photographer follows Taverner, and his host Owen Saunders-Davies, throughout a day's trout fishing on the River Test at Romsey, from tying a fly after breakfast to relaxing with a large-paper edition of "A Summer on the Test" at the end of the day.
