'I envy no body but him, and him only, that catches more fish than
I do.' A unique celebration of the English countryside and the most
famous book on angling ever published, Walton's Compleat Angler
first appeared in 1653. In 1676, at Walton's invitation, his friend
Charles Cotton contributed his pioneering exploration of
fly-fishing. The book is both a manual of instruction and a vision
of society in harmony with nature. It guides the novice fisherman
on how to catch and cook a variety of fish, on how to select and
prepare the best bait and make artificial flies, and on the habits
of freshwater fish. It also promotes angling as a communal activity
in which the bonds of friendship are forged through shared
experience of the natural world. Anecdotes, poetry, music, and song
intersperse the rural descriptions, which promote conservation as
well as sport. This new edition highlights the book's continuing
relevance to our relationship with the environment, and explores
the turbulent history from which it came. ABOUT THE SERIES: For
over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the
widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable
volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the
most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features,
including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful
notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further
study, and much more.
