Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Salmonia, or Days of Fly Fishing in a Series of Conversations: With Some Account of the Habits of Fishes Belonging to the Genus Salmo
These pages formed the occupation of the Author during some months of severe and dangerous illness, when he was wholly incapable of attending to more useful studies, or of following more serious pursuits. They constituted his amusement in many hours which otherwise would have been unoccupied and tedious; and they are published in the hope that they may possess an interest for those persons who derive pleasure from the simplest and most attainable kind of rural sports, and who practise the art, or patronise the Objects of contemplation, of the Philosophical Angler.
