ORANGE OTTER. By Christopher Knowles.

2006 1st edition. 8vo (141 x 222mm). Pp302. B/w photographs, illustrations, bibliography, silk marker. Quarter-bound brown buckram with tipped on illustration.

When Courtney Williams published A Dictionary of Trout Flies in 1949, the Rev. Edward Powell of Munslow, Shropshire had more listings in the index than any other name except Pritt and Ronalds. Christopher Knowles, with the help of sixty years of Powell's fishing diaries, acquaints us with the man behind the patterns and at the same time reveals a whole era of fishing theory and practice that was in danger of disappearing from view. In so doing, he creates a fascinating, highly readable, portrait of Welsh Border fishing and its main characters.
