Item description from seller

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1888). (1888) 1922 "new edition - revised with additions." 12mo (105 x 165mm). Ppvi,109. B/w illustrations. Stiff card covers. Slight foxing & use but a good-plus copy. For a long time the identities of the authors of this book were unknown. The investigations of bookseller, R.J.W. Coleby determined that Spence and Wilson were the authors, and Scottish anglish historian, Richard Hunter, discovered a signed copy of the book giving Galloway as the third author. The names of the editors of this first revision are not given. The new Preface, dated 1922, states:"In revising this quarter-of-a-century old booklet the writers are agreeably surprised to find how few the essential alterations have been. For angling is a progressive art; it is but its groundwork that is permanent. With the exception of dry fly-fishing, which in 1888 was little practised in Scotland, most of the alterations made refer to tackle, to new methods requiring special tackle, or to new knots.A short chapter of advice to beginners and another on sunk fly-fishing have been added." .
