John Lavicount Anderdon
Beside the quiet river Dove, an angler and a painter meet and talk of the gentle art. John Anderdon spins conversations at Beresford Hall on the happy practice of fishing, in the mellow spirit of Walton. Warm, discursive, and steeped in the English countryside. A leisurely book for anyone who loves rod, river, and unhurried talk. Wander the banks of the Dove with a contemplative angler.
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.
