THE EVEN-TEMPERED ANGLER: Being a treatise in praise of the fine art of bottom fishing...
1983 1st edition. Ppx,85. B/w illustrations by Hank Blaustein. Brown cloth-backed boards.
"...together with remarks on the other varieties of fishermen and fishing". "...[this] book is really about the temperaments of fishermen, the odd and fascinating nature of the passion; and as such it is one of the most discerning and hilarious "guides" yet written. Rubin casts a shrewd eye on the various "entomological classes" of Angler: Piscatorius magisterius salmonidaes (the Trout Fisherman), P. littoralis anheuser (the Shoal-Water Fisherman), P. bocagrande plasticum (the Black-Bass Fisherman), and a host of others; there is an especially fond place in the author's heart for the bottom fisherman - the true, the contemplative fisherman, the "even-tempered angler".
