Leeson, Ted.: The Habits of Rivers: Reflections on Trout Streams and Fly Fishing. , LUDLOW: Merlin Unwin Books, 1994.

First UK edition (published in the same year as the US original). Bound in the original red/cream cloth gilt, complete with d/w. 178pp. Unillustrated. Ted Leeson's first book has become something of a classic since its first publication. This is one of the favourite fishing books of Charles Rangeley-Wilson (fishing writer and TV presenter) who comments: "An extensive reflection on rivers and fly fishing by a wiry university lecturer from the hippy generation. To get so metaphysical about such a muddy pursuit is difficult and dangerous, and others who try can quickly become boring or pretentious. But Leeson is an original; he is a keen observer and unusually eloquent. He keeps it anchored, and what emerges is a timeless book about the inner and outer landscape of fishing". This book has been praised all over the world, "...one hell of a good book". (Book ref. 744 )  £ 25.00
