Folio. (66)ff. Profusely illustrated by Robinson with hand-colored, full-page etchings, plus smaller images throughout, is this biblio-sea of aquatic fauna and texts, the latter contributed by Dick Brown, Jeffrey Cardenas, John Cole, Chico Fernandez, Sandy Moret, Billy Pate, Jack Samson, and Thomas McGuane. The universality of fishing, as sport or as metaphor, binds the book. This, however, literally bound in quarter vellum with vellum edges, with blue paper over boards. Vellum inlay to upper cover gilt-ruled and -stamped with fish. Housed with the extra suite of prints, which are held in a chemise, in a dropback box. Fine.
