This is not a fishing guidebook or a how-to-fish book, but a book written, in the words of the author, ‘For the pleasure of going fishing again in retrospect along my favourite rivers’. Reprinted from The Seven Rivers, Douglas Stewart’s reminiscences of fishing in Australia and New Zealand, this collection is an affectionate evocation of the wildlife, the scenery, the fishermen and the fish of some of the rivers accessible to Canberra anglers.
