The Compleat Angler


Book Description

The Compleat Angler, Izaak Walton's fishing classic, is a celebration of the art and spirit of fishing. Through prose, verse, song, and folklore, Walton inspires readers to go into nature -- to go to its meandering streams and rivers -- and fish. Walton teaches us about a life filled with harmony between nature, man, and God; and a life spent in the company of friends and free from the hustle of the city.
