Synopsis
This classic book, long out of print and highly praised by important angling historians, is a sustained and thoughtful paean to trout fishing, of the sort the author himself liked to "read by the fire in the winter when the brooks are sealed."
First published in 1930, Thy Rod and Thy Creel is a rare book of reflection with some of the best writing ever to grace angling literature. Schullery, in his Introduction, speaks of its "intellectual sophistication without social posturing, and wit without sarcasm, and penetrating wisdom without obtuse pedantry." The book explores the ancient charm of the sport and the character of its participants. Humorous, insightful, and honest, Thy Rod and Thy Creel is a treat for anyone who wants the finest prose about angling. (51/4 X 81/4, 128 pages)
