A FLY FISHER'S LIFE. By Charles Ritz. Revised and enarged edition prepared in collaboration with John Piper. 1972 3rd edition.
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.
