Buchbeschreibung
Holder, Charles Frederick.
BIG GAME FISHES OF THE UNITED STATES.
1903 1st 41 pp. illustrations, including eight in color. New York: The Macmillan Company, 1903. First edition. As cornerstones in the field of big game fishing, Holder's books are noted for their combination of accurate scientific detail with exciting narratives. In addition to covering the fundamentals of angling, this volume includes accounts of fishing for black sea-bass, California barracuda, yellowtail, California sheepshead, Florida jewfish, leaping sharks, dolphin, tarpon, and Channel-bass. A legendary Southern California sportsman and civic promoter, Dr. Charles Frederick Holder virtually invented the sport of big game fishing, was a founding member of Catalina Island's Tuna Club, and as a leading resident of Pasadena, played a vital role in establishing the annual Tournament of Roses Parade. A volume in the American Sportsman's Library, edited by Caspar Whitney. Green cloth binding, with decorative gilt stamping. Some minor edgewear to the boards, with just a hint of fading to the spine; otherwise a decidedly crisp, very good copy. Hampton, J.: Modern Angling Bibliography, p.52.
