Bibliotheca Salmo Salar: A Selection of Rare Books, Manuscripts, Journals, Diaries, Photograph Albums, & Ephemera on the Subject of Atlantic Sa
en Hardback – 15 feb 2017
Every activity generates its own literature, but few have generated as much enthusiasm as salmon fishing. A distinguished antiquarian bookseller, Charles B. Wood III has been pursuing these fish for decades, and has what is probably the most extensive collection in private hands. For this selective bibliography he has chosen 230 of the most interesting titles (some of them so rare that they might be encountered only once in a lifetime) and arranged them by country and date. All titles are illustrated.
