Charmingly written in the form of letters to the author's sons, its advice is as relevant now as when it was written. French translation of the 3rd edition. The translator has omitted the author's notes since, "for the most part they refer to technical details, now obsolete". According to the translator, "the translation is faithful to the original text - including, let it be said, Chaytor's obvious errors, for instance on the subject of the spawning of salmon". Newcolour illustrations by Yves Petit. This edition consists of 500 copies, of which the first 150 were numbered and appeared in hardback. Although paperback and hardback are treated as one printing, the first 150 copies are referred to as the 'edition de tete'. This limitation is not stated in the paperback edition.
