The Compleat Angler

by Izaak Walton

About this book

A fisherman leads his companions through waterside conversations about fish, methods of angling and the pleasures of country life. Practical advice sits alongside songs, anecdotes and reflections.

Walton’s leisurely dialogue follows streams, inns and rural paths, giving equal attention to the craft of fishing and the company in which it is enjoyed.
