5.0 out of 5 stars Days on the Water reflect days of the past, March 15, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Days on the Water: The Angling Tradition in Pennsylvania (Hardcover)

Days on the Water isn't a fishing book, per se. It's about the history, folklore, and traditions of fishing, as much well-written literature as it is a compendium of fishing lore and information. This isn't a "how to fish" book, or a "let me tell you how I bagged the big one" book. Days on the Water appeals to anglers, anglers' relatives, history buffs, nature enthusiasts, and those who appreciate good, straight-from-the-hip prose in the Hemingway style.
