Dimock, A.W. – THE BOOK OF THE TARPON – 1990 Limited Edition Printing of 950 Copies of 1911 classic 1st edition – Meadow Run Press – 256p plus 22p bibliography – This book in the first edition has become very expensive. And that is simply because it is “the book” for the tarpon fisherman. This is a truly fascinating narrative of early tarpon fishing by one of the pioneers of the sport. This legendary masterwork embodies all of the expeditionary drama and excitement you would expect pursuing a primitive fish in primitive waters while using primitive equipment. It is a delight--vintage Florida and the Everglades teeming with leaping, crashing, somersaulting fish--defining, in many ways, what a great fishing book should be. Replete with many thrilling photo of leaping tarpon as only tarpon can leap. – Very fine in fine dust jacket - $90.00
