"Indeed my good scholar we may say of angling as Dr. Boteler said of strawberries 'Doubtless God could have made a better berry but doubtless God never did'; and so if I might be judge God never did make a more calm quiet innocent recreation than angling" The Compleat Angler. Izaak Walton 1593-1683 "English biographer who is best known for The Compleat Angler 1653 a classic guide to the joys of fishing with over 300 new printings. It combines practical information about angling with folklore. The story of three friends traveling through the English countryside is enlivened by occasional songs ballads quotations from several writers and glimpses of an idyllic and now lost rural life.The Compleat Angler was a combination of manual and meditation.Walton drew his work on Nicholas Breton's c. 1545-1626 fishing idyll Wits Trenchmour 1597. The second edition was largely rewritten and in the fifth edition Walton wrote about fly-fishing on the river Dove a subject the author himself knew little about. The last i.e. fifth edition was published in 1676 and included additional material by Charles Cotton Instructions how to Angle for a Trout or Grayling in a Clear Stream and Colonel Robert Venables's The Experienced Angler or Angling Improved. Walton called this work The Universal Angler. He had taught Cotton but never met Venables" "Izaak Walton 1593-1683" at Pegasos-A Literature Related Resource Site. Coigney 56. <br/><br/> London: D.
