Andrew Lang
43 pages~51 min read6 chapters$4.99
Andrew Lang opens the door to Izaak Walton, the gentle biographer who turned fishing into literature. He weighs Walton the writer, compares fishing then and now, and prepares the reader for the most beloved book about rod and stream ever penned. A witty, affectionate preface to a classic. Wade in before you cast the Angler itself.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
