"David Profumo and Graham Swift have researched an astonishing range of sources to compile a fascinating and highly unusual anthology: taken from literature through the ages, from erotic writing to religious sermons, from the Bible and Homer to John Buchan and George Orwell, consistently interesting and diverting." A great read and a useful taster for angling literature as well as that of other genres which touch on the subject. This paperback was published a year earlier than the hardback edition.
