"Today's advanced quad and hollow-construction fly-rod designs are a far cry from the ash and lancewood rods of the early nineteenth century. While the modern American fly rod perhaps began with Samuel Phillippe, it tooktook the undeniable genius of Hiram Leonard to bring it worldwide acclaim. Proceeding chronologically, and moving across the country, Martin J. Keane investigates the handiwork of virtually very master rod-craftsmen, and considers every major development in the craft over the last hundred years." - from dust-jacket blurb.
