Isbn: 9781906122324 - fishing with harry: a tale of piscatorial mayhem (13 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Harry, an incorrigible, engaging and dapper biscuit salesman in his forties, ex-Army and the City, becomes the unlikely angling companion of young Tony, the love-struck, shy 19-year-old accountant who is courting his step-daughter. Throughout the 1960s, this unique fishing friendship is cemented via a series of largely nocturnal fishing jaunts across London, Essex then further afield, to ponds, gravel pits and rivers. As mods and rockers hit the scene, Harry and Tony set off at first on buses, then on a scooter and later, more luxuriously, in Tonys battered green Ford. With huge excitement and more than their share of mayhem and mishap, they cast their lines wherever fish are to be found (or not, as the case may be!) At times touching, at times bawdy, always amusing this is a book not just for anglers but for anyone who enjoys a finely-told story. ** All royalties from sales of this book will be donated to the charity CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young) **.
