Descripción
8vo., Second Edition thus, with portrait frontispiece, decorative and printed titles, printed title-vignette, facsimile of title of first edition, 3 engraved plates of flies, and 39 woodcut illustrations (including 19 of fish and 6 of tackle) in the text, some very light dust-soiling; original mid-green cloth elaborately blocked in blind, green top, yellow endpapers, neatly rebacked with old backstrip laid down, new paper label on backstrip, an attractive copy in sympathetically restored publisher's binding. Fitzgibbon's charming edition was first published in the previous year in Ingram's 'Illustrated Library'. It includes a biographical sketch of Walton condensed from Hawkins' edition of 1797. Westwood & Satchell term this 'a pretty and useful edition'. Westwood & Satchell, p.232.
