From the Preface, 'To those as yet unfamiliar with the art of fishing and the waters of our Province [Natal], [this book] may serve to whet the appetite for the perfect recreation that lies dormant in every man who loves the open sky and a pleasant valley This is no Tourist Guide Book; nor it is a treatise of the technique of Trout Fishing ... I have written this book for my own delight and for what I hope may be the pleasure of those to whom the Trout Streams of Natal are an abiding and always deepening joy.'

  • Overall Condition: Very good
  • Size: 8vo (185 x 115 mm)
