Book excerpt: “A Book of Fishing Stories” is a 1913 work by F. G. Aflalo comprising a variety of stories related to angling. Contents include: “Odds and Ends”, “Salmon Fishing in the Spey”, “On Sea Trout”, “Dapping on Lough Derg”, “Salmon Failures and Successes”, “Salmon and Trout Memories in Many Lands”, “How to Make Trout-fishing”, “Tarpon Fishing in the Seas”, “Memories of Mahseer”, Course-Fishing Memories”, etc. This wonderful volume of authentic angling anecdotes is recommended for all with a love of fishing and outdoor pursuits, and it would make for a lovely addition to collections of allied literature. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of fishing.
