Excerpt from Angling Clubs and Preservation Societies of London and the Provinces With regard to the provincial societies, the line adopted has been entirely different - not in so far as I personally was concerned, because the same letter was addressed to each and all, but in the matter of politeness and courteous consideration towards myself. The result leaves me little room for doubt that the gentlenesses of modern society are cultivated far more abroad than they are at home. Many gentlemen have taken considerable trouble in affording me especially valuable information; to all such I tender my warmest and heartiest thanks - not so much perhaps for the knowledge conveyed in their letters, as for the kindly sentiments which accompanied it. Thus much by way of introduction. For the reason stated, I regret very much that my little book does not contain fuller and more concise information. I leave it, however, to the tender mercies of my readers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
