Contact seller5-star sellerDevon, England. The Flyfisher's Classic Library. 1995. Limited Edition. One of 750 copies published. Octavo (8 1/2 x 6 1/2). xiv, 133 pp. Color frontispiece showing thirteen flies dressed by Mr. Skues with each fly identified. More than a century has passed since publication of this cornerstone book on fishing nymphs for picky t…rout on flat water. Revolutionary in 1910, and in some ways, still so today. A hundred years ago, trout fishing on the streams of Hampshire was dominated by dry fly fishermen who, without much quibbling, followed the credo of Frederic Halford, first proselytized in his book, "Floating Flies and How to Dress Them." The cult of the dry fly, fished up-stream only, ruled the day. Mr. Skues's book cracked that monopoly and it opened up a series of new techniques which still continue and evolve today: nymphs fished downstream, upstream, and mid-stream. Interestingly, Skues opened his book with this Dedication: "To my Friend the Dry-Fly Purist, and to my Enemies, if I have Any." The book is bound in burgundy leatherette and red cloth with gilt titles and a decoration. Marbled end papers. Red cloth slip case. A handsome book. Fine in a fine slip case.

Contact seller5-star sellerDevon, England. Thr Flyfisher's Classic Library. 1997. Limited Edition. One of 500 copies published. Octavo (8 x 6). 136 pp. including index. Color frontispiece showing a variety of Mr. Skues' nymphs. There's a double-page black and white plate showing the contents of a trout's stomach contents (a large number of nymphs; what el…se?). The book is a collection of previously penned essays and stories originally appearing in periodicals. G. E. M. Skues in his Apologia regrets allowing these stories to be published once again. That's okay, because most of us probably never read the magazines in any case. The book is bound in dark green imitation leather with gilt tiles on the spine. Silk ribbon marker. Marbled end papers. Light green cloth slip case. A nice book. Fine in a fine slip case.
