London. A. & C. Black, Ltd. 1928 [1921]. Second Edition. Octavo (9 x 6). xvi, 259 pp. plus a one page advertisement for Amadou (the ad is funny; a refreshing parody penned by Mr. Skues). Photo frontispiece showing ten variations of the blue dun fly. Three additional plates, two of which are colored showing how Mr. Skues dresses his nymphs. There is an amusing chapter at the end of book, "Chapter X. What we Have to Put with at the Club / Doggerel from the Club Journal / This is Mine." Mr. Skues describes in rhymes his curiosity and parody of the dry fly. This book firmly established G. E. M. Skues and his methods as the preeminent force in early twentieth century fly fishing. The book is bound in brown cloth with gilt titles on the spine. Pictorial dust jacket (the jacket is from the third printing). A very good book with some foxing within the text. The dust jacket is good/very good with edge wear and chips at the spine ends. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 010981
