Reseña del editor

Not indeed so much on account of thefish we may catch, but for the pleasantness of the recreation itself, for the cool streams, the shady trees, the little sunny nooks, the tiny or gigantic cascades, the meandering rills, the still pools, with sedges overhung; the picturesque mill-wheels, the deep mill-ponds, smooth sheeted by the flood; and above all, for the hairbreadth escapes, for the duckings, for the hazards, for the triumphs. A h, I do not wonder at boys being fond of angling, it is almost an instinct with them, and has long been a favourite amusement with boys of all degrees, ages and constitutions.
