Wm Satchell, 1884, Hardcover, Book Condition: Good, First, Inscribed by Author
This is a piece of homage from the man who literally wrote the book about fishing books, to the man who wrote THE book on fishing Izaak Walton. Published to mark the bicentenary of Walton's death. This copy is inscribed by 'the author' on the endpaper. The boards are a little darkened all over. The gutta percha binding is holding and has been reinforced but was probably the reason why so few of these survive. Size: small quarto. Category: Fishing & Hunting; Poetry. Inscribed by Author.
