Fascinating book on the history and lore of Atlantic salmon fishing and flies. The salmon fishing stories are wonderful. However, for a book that was up-dated in 1995, the chapter on "The New Look in Salmon Tackle" was very out-of-date -- graphite rods aren't even mentioned.On the other hand, I found the sections on how salmon take flies, and wet-fly and dry-fly fishing methods useful. The writing on salmon flies and their history is fascinating. This is my first book on the topic so I can't say how it compares with others.
