Description

 


You’ve heard of Izaak Walton’s The Compleat Angler. Now you can own your very own copy!


This book is a faithful reproduction of the original, published on the 300th anniversary of the first printing by the Scolar Press in London. It’s about 4 inches by 6 inches by 1.5 inches thick. The printing and spelling are naturally as they were first presented to the public in 1676 and are entertaining in their own right.


It’s not a fancy edition, but one that reflects the practical and philosophical nature of Walton’s book. You’ll find it a leisurely read, not unlike a good day’s fishing.
