Default My Christmas books.

I always try and get a few books for Christmas. This year I have gone for "A man may fish" by Kingsmill-Moore. I 've read plenty of articles based on the book, so I thought it must be time to read the actual work itself. I once read a comment made by an Irish gillie, that there are more fish in the book than ever there were in Kingsmill-Moore's boat, but hey, that's anglers for you.

The other book I've picked up is "Angling Lines" by Bruce Sandison. I've always enjoyed Mr Sandison's writings, so am looking forward to this one too.

A good choice with both books.
The first is a classic in it's own write.

The Bruce Sandison book if well worth a read,some nice stories contained within it's pages. I would recommend this one for lovers of wild places & at £9.99 won't break the bank.

" A Man May Fish" can you do a review - once you've read it of-course!

No problem. I'll put something up for both of them.
