Wild Brook Trout.—The
announcement of a new book
on fishing interests a class of the
community, especially those
confined to the cities, which is
increasing year by year. This
work depicts a trout fisherman's
paradise. It is from the same
graphic pen as The Wildfowlers,
and divulges many a secret of
the fisherman's craft. One may
learn from its pages where a
gentle creel of real wild brook
trout may be made in a morning's
pleasant angling, "in a
free and comparatively virgin
gameland—a wild and naturally
beautiful country, embracing
all the charms of scenic splendor
for which the American brook
trout regions are famous," and
its pages contain an abundance
of practical detail concerning
tackle and methods of casting
the fly, and playing and landing
the game ... it makes a notable
addition to the sportsman's
library.—New York Home Journal,
May 10, 1900.
