Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rambles With a Fishing-Rod
The following sketches are the results of some vacations chiefly spent in rambling about the Continent with a fishing-rod. Written on leisure evenings on the spot, they can pretend to have little literary merit, and will doubtless appear trivial to the serious traveller in search of information. Indeed I should scarcely have thought of republishing this selection from des ultory work done in hours of idleness, had I not often been asked by friends and others for hints upon fishing expeditions. Nor am I certain that the angler who stays at home may not find something in these pages to in terest him. I have even a faint hope, judging from what people tell me at dinner-parties.
