Title: For the Contemplative Man: A Bibliography of Works Related to Angling and Sport Fishing in the University of British Columbia Library. {Signed by Lee Perry}.
Description: Vancouver, British Columbia. Published by The University of British Columbia Library. 2002. First Edition. Octavo (8 x 6). 199 pp. Signed by the compiler, Lee Perry, on the title page. With a well-written Introduction to the collection and history of the Harry Hawthorn Foundation by Art Lingren. Illustrated by Loucas Raptis. Nearly two thousand angling and fishing books plus pamphlets are listed in the university’s Harry Hawthorn Foundation angling collection. The work is more of a checklist than a full-fledged bibliography, but is nonetheless a valuable contribution to angling literature. A quite scarce bibliography, as only a handful were published. The book is bound in pictorial printed wrappers with a black metal coil spine. In fine condition.
