Excerpt from Blacker's Art of Flymaking, &C, : Comprising Angling, and Dyeing of Colours, With Engravings of Salmon and Trout Flies, Shewing the Process of the Gentle Craft as Taught in the Pages, With Descriptions of Flies for the Season of the Year as They Come Out on the WaterMy endeavours have been unceasing for many years past, in striving to please the great Salmon Fishers and Trout Fishers of this Country, and I must confess that my labours have not been in vain, they have generously conferred upon me their very kind patronage and good will, benefits for which I hold them in very great estimation. Under these circumstances, I have taken much pains to write the book in a befitting manner to suit their tastes and purposes, although my inability in many instances has been an obstacle, nevertheless with all my faults I claim the title of Fisherman, an humble and unimportuned name which no reasonable dispensation can deprive me of.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
