Excerpt from The Angler's Companion a Popular and Practical Handbook to the Art of Angling In placing a revised and cheaper edition of the present work before the public, little need be said regarding either the book or its distinguished author, both are so well known. The work has been a standard one, on this attractive and interesting subject, ever since its first appearance. Indeed, by the time the second edition appeared, the author had spent nearly half a lifetime in little else, than angling and writing on matters connected with the gentle art. Since the publication of the second edition, it having become illegal to fish with salmon roe, the portion bearing on that matter has, of course, been omitted from the present issue. Likewise the information that appeared there, regarding the various lettings for rod-fishing, has been omitted, being now quite superseded by that contained in any recent Sportsman's Guide. The son of a distinguished naval officer, Mr. Stoddart studied for the bar. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
