Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Brook Trout and the Determined Angler: A Little Pocket Volume Containing Several Descriptions of a Fly Fisher's Paradise, and a Few Practical Suggestions for the Young Angler The article, "Fly Fishing for Trout," I contributed in its original form to Sports Afield, Mr. Claude King's Western journal. The article "Trout and Trouting," as I originally prepared it, was entitled "Near-by Trout Streams," and was written for and published in Outing, when I was field editor of that delightful magazine. "Trouting in Canadensis Valley" is rewritten from a little story of mine penned for the noted angler and ichthyologist, Mr. William C. Harris, and published by him in The American Angler. And most of the items in "Little Casts" are from a collection of paragraphs I have contributed to the New York Herald and various sporting periodicals in the past dozen years. For the little pen-and-ink sketches I am indebted to our jovial artist, Leppert. The picture, "Taking the Fly," is a reproduction from an etching in my possession, presented to me by Mr. William M. Carey, whose etchings and paintings in oil are well known to American sportsmen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
