(1854) 1855 reprint. 12mo (105 x 164mm). Pp iv,187. Illustrated with 7 engraved plates (a frontispiece view and the others of fish or tackle). Buff limp cloth, printed in black. Generic cover design with images of hunting, shooting and fishing on upper cover, printed in black only, advertisements for Books for the Country series on the rear. .
A rather general "How and where to fish" guide to game and coarse angling, some of it reproduced from Blakey's earlier Hints On Angling. While most of the coarse fish merit only a page or two, the chapter on pike is good and amounts to thirteen pages.
