A Man May Fish » (REV)

"A Man May Fish by the late Mr. Justice Kingsmill Moore, one of the most respected men in Ireland in the decades before his death, has become a fishing classic since its first publication in 1960. The work covers a life-time of fishing in Ireland for trout, sea trout (white trout), and salmon. The author was a skilled and long-experienced angler with an enviable command of the English language, and his book is full of information on how to fish. Although it is often reminiscent, there are no idle memories: every incident teaches something of value, so that A Man May Fish is a really useful, practical book." "In his introduction, Conrad Voss Bark writes that Kingsmill Moore 'uses his subject as a key to open his readers' minds to widen horizons. He has an astonishing ability too, as a writer, to create living people.'" It is a book to enchant every angler for salmon and trout, whilst to the angling visitor to Irish water, it must rate as essential reading.
