American Fly Fishing: A History
The old adage that a fishing rod is a stick with a hook at one end and an idiot at the other is never more true than when it comes to fly-fishing, a sport that is akin to a religion to millions worldwide. In this volume, "Schullery provides a service by giving us the first thorough overview of the literature, techniques, and materials of fly fishing" (LJ 8/87). This edition contains a new introduction by the author. Libraries already owning fly-fishing how-to titles may want this for balance.Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
