DESCRIPTION:
"If only you had a streamside coffee table" according to David J. White. Atkinson's latest book joins "Distant Waters" as a must have for the angler that travels to the remote corners of the world to fish, or dreams of doing so.In this series of journeys, world-class authors' tales accompany Valentine's sublime photographs.

Partial redux of previous bookan obvious attempt to capitalize of fly-fishing mania, as we have seen in the Northwest. Pictures are fair.
Thus, an excerpt from Zane Grey's Tales of the Angler's Eldorado (1926) about trout fishing in New Zealand is accompanied by breathtaking photos taken there and captioned by Atkinson. From Library Journal Atkinson's photographs of scenic fishing locales are extraordinary compositions showing off the natural beauty that abounds in and near streams, rivers, and lakes on several continents.

Recommended for public libraries and coffee tables everywhere.?Will Hepfer, SUNY at Buffalo Libs.Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. . The pictu
