"The Trout is one of the most comprehensive books ever written on the brown trout. It will be of immense value to both naturalist and fisherman. It has been written in a clear and concise style by a non-scientist for other non-scientists and covers every aspect of trout biology. Amongst the topics in the book are: Evolution of the trout; Physiology; Breeding; Life and growth; Predation, food and feeding; Freshwater environment; Farming and stocking. The book is illustrated throughout with many super colour illustrations, including a set of specially commissioned paintings by leading artist, Jonathan Newdick. The Trout aims to give fishermen a greater awareness of the life and habits of their quarry. It is the most important book to be written on the subject for many years and will be essential reading for anyone interested in this fish".
