A FISHERMAN'S LOG: FISHING YARNS AND THEORIES. By Major G.L. Ashley-Dodd.
1929 1st edition. 8vo (140 x 225mm). Ppx,184. Chapter heading vignette woodcuts by Barbara Greg. A variant binding - dark green cloth with Constable and Co at the foot of the spine, but no upper board vignette, Times Book Club label on rear end-paper and may be a book club binding.
An attractive collection of articles, many of which previously appeared in angling journals. Mostly on salmon, trout and sea trout fishing but includes two chapters on pike and one on rudd. "I have purposely refrained from comparing rudd with carp, as, though these fish grow bigger than rudd, from the angler's point of view they are contemptible."
