‎Moisie River‎

‎Boston: Privately Printed by Geo. H. Ellis Co 1938. First edition one of only 30 copies this copy numbered in ink "Seven. Illustrated with 28 photographs on 14 plates and 5 hand-colored plates after old prints and a photograph; with folding map tipped in on rear pastedown. 1 vols. 8vo. Original dark blue grained leatherette title gilt on upper cover. A fine fresh copy. First edition one of only 30 copies this copy numbered in ink "Seven". Illustrated with 28 photographs on 14 plates and 5 hand-colored plates after old prints and a photograph; with folding map tipped in on rear pastedown. 1 vols. 8vo. E.H. Rawls Copy. In his Foreword the author states: "These sketches were written for the members of the Moisie Salmon Club. The sole purpose was to give information to them of the waters and conditions of the Moisie River and its branches above the places customarily fished by them.". The Moisie is one of a network of navigable rivers running about 110 miles northward from the St. Lawrence in eastern Quebec; old and well worn portage paths testify to the antiquity of the route along which for hundreds of years Indians have hunted and fished. For salmon and sea trout it is one of the richest areas known. It is not surprising that the Moisie Salmon Club was founded to reap the benefits of this bounty; what is surprising is that so much care attention and expense has been lavished on a book limited to only 30 copies. The text consists primarily of the author's descriptions of areas north of the more usual fishing sites based on his explorations as a sportsman with guides. In addition to five colored plates which tend to establish the romantic mood of the region there are 28 superb reproductions of sepia photographs printed on special photographic-type paper to convey both the look and the actual feel of the originals. The book's 78 pages conclude with an Index and inside the back cover is mounted a folding map of the area described.<br/><br/>The book is rare not in Wetzel or Heller not seen by Bruns and the only copy we know of to appear at auction - a worn copy - brought $1870 at the Netz sale in New York in 1986.<br/><br/>This copy bears the ownership signature of E.H. Rawls on the front flyleaf: pages 12 to 19 comprise Edward H. Rawls' own account of his 1929 trip to the East Branch Chute and Cran Serré of the Moisie River where he was the first to take salmon on a light rod above the falls in defiance of "the old story retold until believed by everyone that salmon would rise ot the fly above the rapids". Palmer notes that Rawls' exploits prompted the club to build the Webster trail and develop the upper river.<br/><br/>A choice association copy.

It covers a variety of aspects of management including human resources financial management and legal considerations. The purpose is to provide basic information on organizational and administrative issues as they apply to the profession. This is useful information because many athletic trainers are managers as well; the book meets its objectives. Although written primarily for those students preparing for NATA certification this book is useful for the working ATC in the field and in the clinic. The author is credible in this area. The book includes illustrations that aid in clarifying the information. Each chapter begins with a case study that is discussed throughout the chapter and is followed by further case studies for discussion. The appendix offers a helpful outline worksheet to practically use the information gained by the text. This is a very useful text for students preparing for NATA certification as well as for the working ATC. Traditionally this knowledge was gained on the job. This book aims to prepare ATCs for the management and administrative aspects of the profession. Human Kinetics Publishers Hardcover‎
