Excerpt from Letters to a Salmon Fisher's Sons In the library of one enthusiastic angler - as Walton says now with God, a noted fisher both for Trout and Salmon, ' there were no less than two thousand seven hundred books upon fishing. So, you see, when any one is found with pen in hand writing a book upon angling he may well be called upon, as the lawyers are when they join their circuits, to state his pretensions.' And if it were only to avoid the appearance of teaching those who exceed himself in experi ence and in Skill he would probably wish to do so.

Excerpt from Secrets of the Salmon My experiences as related in this volume deal only with salmon of Canadian rivers running toward the Atlantic Ocean, and those of New F oundland.

Excerpt from Days and Nights of Salmon Fishing I will write a sort of a Book on Fishing, said I to my friend Mr. Lobworm; when a fresh breeze from the gentle south swept over the meadows, stealing and giving odours, and reminded me of the many calm and pleasant hours I had spent by the margin of some crystal stream.

Excerpt from The Salmon There are at least two respects in which the subject of Salmon is important, and two in which it is interesting. It is important commercially, the salmon fisheries forming ancient and valuable property, a large means of employ ment, and a very considerable supply of food somewhat less important as furnishing an old and keenly - relished sport, the privilege of exercising which has become a sort of property superadded to the value for purely commercial uses. It is interesting as involving some of the strangest facts, the most instructive experiments, and the most perplexing mysteries in natural history; and as having within these few years undergone inves tigation more searching and legislation more vigorous than for centuries before. The subject, too, is especially a British, or British and-lrish one - still more especially a Scottish one. The great majority of countries have by nature been cut off from direct interest and from any kind of power in the matter, and no country has an interest at once so great and so imperilled as our own; for upon few nations has the gift of the king of fish been conferred.
