TWO BOOKS FOR ANGLERS. 



I Go a-Fishing, 



I Go a-Fishing. By WILLIAM C. PRIME. Crown 8vo, 

 Cloth, $2 50/ 



An admirable piece of literary mosaic. It abounds in fresh descrip- 

 tions of nature as breezy and fragrant as the spicy woodlands in which 

 they had their birth. The author has brought to its composition a rare 

 familiarity with the daintiest products of literature and art, a passion 

 for curious and out-of-the-way knowledges, extensive and observant 

 travel in regions remote from the beaten track, and a heart-felt love of 

 nature in her hidden ways and sylvan retreats. N. Y. Tribune. 



It is a volume that will outlive the summer, and many summers, 

 and be as fresh and pleasant and suggestive by the fireside as by the 

 brook side. Boston Journal. 



A very entertaining and equally instructive volume. On his line he 

 hangs all sorts of episodical incident, discussion, antique lore, curious 

 bits of philology, poetry, and story, beguiling the hours on lake and 

 stream with pleasant talk, such as Izaak Walton or Dr. Bethune in- 

 dulged in. Observer, N. Y. 



Hallock's Fishing Tourist, 



The Fishing Tourist : Angler's Guide and Reference 

 Book. By CHARLES HALLOCK, Secretary of the 

 " Blooming - Grove Park Association." Illustrated. 

 Crown 8vo, Cloth, $2 00. 



Mr. Charles Hallock is one of the few gentlemen who write a book 

 mainly for the reason that they have something to write about have 

 something to tell the public which the public desires to know. Mr. Hal- 

 lock learned how to use the pen in the exacting rounds of a newspaper 

 office, and being a traveller, a patient student of nature, and a practical 

 angler, casting his fly on many waters, he acquired a rich fund of infor- 

 mation. The book is called " The Fishing Tourist," and the title is not 

 a misnomer. The shortest routes to pleasure are laid down, and cor- 

 rect information is given as to the best means of conveyance, the ex- 

 pense of the trip, the secrets of the commissariat, etc. The author has 

 avoided the use of technical terms, and thus made his volume all the 

 more acceptable to the majority of readers. Turf, Field, and Farm, N. Y.
