A book for all fly fishers, one, from which the duffer may learn how to learn, the expert may learn how much he knows, and both may smile. Wives and others who have found the mystery as set out in the larger books too mysterious for them, will here find that the veil is drawn gently aside, so that they too may understand something of this art, and its enduring hold and solace for both old and young.
A most useful little book. It is Mr Pecks whim to pretend that he too is a duffer, but clearly he knows so much about fly fishing that he is able to focus its essentials, and these he passes on in an admirably lucid way, and with a nice turn of humour.
