| Jennings, Preston – A BOOK OF TROUT FLIES – 1935 1st trade edition – Crown, NY – 190p - Orginally published by Derrydale Press as a limited edition of 850 copies in 1935 which are now high-priced collectibles costing at as much $600.00 to $900.00. This book was a giant-step in American fly-fishing literature in identifying insects and matching them with tying patterns to imitate the natural insects of trout streams and rivers. This book is considered to be the beginning of serious fly tying entomology on this side of the Atlantic. Surely this is one of the half-dozen most important books about trout stream insects ever published in America. – This is a nice copy in the original slip-case. – Book is very good - in a few nicks but still very nice slip case - $95.00 |
