| First published in 1653, Walton's popular classic treatise on fishing goes far beyond technique, as it embraces a life that values serenity and appreciation for creation. Some of the natural history lore in this book is antiquated, but keen intelligence and good humor express themselves in a readable and enjoyable manner.
This edition includes Charles Cotton's "Part 2," written at Izaak Walton's request, for the fifth edition of the book. The Compleat Angler makes a great classic gift for the fisherman, philosopher, outdoors enthusiast, or English lit major. Fishing is more than a sport; it's a lifestyle. |
