DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Northern Angler: Or, Fly-Fisher's Companion It is fit, gentle reader, that I should advise thee to study the Art of Angling, not merely because it is regarded as an elegant and innocent amusement, but rather as it tends to promote the health of its votaries, by tempting them to take salutary exercise in the open air, at a season, too, when nature is most lovely - when "the etherial mildness" seems to gladden almost every living creature. "Now gentle gales. Fanning their odoriferous wings, dispense Native perfumes, and whisper whence they stole Those balmy spoils."
