The Accidental Angler

Beschreibung

Takes us from London suburbs to Bhutan, Icelandic moonscapes to the Seychelles. This work shows how fishing can take you to the heart of a landscape in a way few other forms of travel can match. A fishing rod can also break the ice with locals, guides, farmers, shopkeepers, taxi drivers and bar-flies.
