Synopsis
Frank Sawyer spent his life in the valley of the river Avon which passes through the downlands of Salisbury Plain. From early boyhood he was enraptured by the river and the wild creatures that lived in and around it. At the age of eighteen he took the job of under-keeper and thereafter devoted his life to the upkeep of the river Avon. This book contains much of the wisdom and insight acquired in the course of the author’s long life. Sawyer’s observations are still as fresh and perceptive as the day they were written and river-keepers today would be hard pressed to find a repository of piscatorial and riparian information to equal it.

One certainty about fishing, the least certain of all sports, is the impossibility of knowing it all. Everybody knows that to the making of angling books there is no end, and that for some of them there is no readily perceptible reason. In the present instance the reason will soon be very obvious to all who are drawn into Sawyer’s enthralling odyssey through the under-water world and share his broadening view of a most skillful and attractive form of fly-fishing; a form in which the extra flexibility in tactics gives the fisherman opportunities to surmount environmental handicaps which are denied him in the older forms of fly-fishing.

Brand new limited edition hardback volume in marble slipcase. Strictly limited to 1000 individually numbered copies. Consists of the 1958 first edition, 1970 second edition and a brand new chapter of new material.
