Description
Roy. 8vo., First Edition, with numerous charming illustrations in the text; pictorial green cloth, upper board and backstripo elaborately blocked in gilt, a near fine copy. 'There have been scores of angling anthologies, but in this one my friend Kenneth Hopkins casts his net more widely, I think, than any angler for poems has done before.' ('Foreword'). Moore's thoughtful Foreword is possibly his last original contribution, written as it was very shortly before his death.
