A FLY FISHER'S LIFE. By Charles Ritz. Prepared in collaboration with John Piper. 1996 Robert Hale reprint.
(1959) ND later Robert Hale reprint. Large 8vo (181 x 253mm). Ppxii,280. B/w photographs, illustrations. Black boards, silver-gilt titles to spine.
One of the great angling books of the twentieth century. Much of the book is on technique, especially Ritz's famous "High speed - high line" method of casting. His reminiscences of fishing, especially in Europe, make wonderful reading. I note that in the chapters on specific fish, the grayling is the first on his list, and the salmon last.
