Excerpt from Fishes I Have Known
The subject of fish and fishing has always been of such interest, particularly to inhabitants of sea-girt lands, that this book (professedly nontechnical) recording my experience of the life and habits of fishes, and the various modes of capturing them in Great Britain and elsewhere, docs not, I think, require much justification for its existence.
In many countries the harvest of the sea ranks first in importance, while in others it is of hardly less consequence than the annual ingathering of wheat and other cereals.
