City Fishing
London's Thames River; a dump on the San Francisco Bay; Paris's Ile de la Cite; Manhattan's East River; and a minuscule pond in a Tokyo park near a "main defense establishment" are a few of the fishing sites featured in the anthology City Fishing. Most fishing guides (and people who fish) set their sights on the great outdoors Montana, Oregon, Maine anywhere but deep in the city. But these authors, including Ian Frazier, J.H. Hall, Dave Hughes and Charles Rangeley-Wilson, intrepid fishermen all, describe their urban fishing exploits with humor, graphic detail, social commentary and a peculiar sense of adventure.Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
