LE GALLIENNE, Richard, edits.
The Compleat Angler
A mammoth book profusely illustrated and printed on fine handmade paper. This edition uses the text of the fifth edition, the last to be revised by Walton himself. Terminal Bodley Head ads, as well as ads for Sampson, Low, Marston and Company’s angling titles.
Splash stain to the lower portion of spine barely affecting front board, and faintly present on rear board. One corner of the rear board is badly banged. Otherwise a very good copy of an imposing book.
