Default looking for a book

Has anyone published a book that shows a picture of the natural fly and the fly that imitates it with all the tying details?

The best that I can advise you is: The Fly-Fisher's Handbook written by Malcolm Greenhalgh and Denys Ovendon.
It will have everything you want in it. Cost is about £25.00

Great book but possibly not what Gadaffi is looking for!
