The Complete Angler: And The Lives Of Donne, Wotton, Hooker, Herbert And Sanderson is a book written by Izaak Walton and published in 1901. It is a collection of five biographies of famous English clergymen and scholars, including John Donne, Sir Henry Wotton, Richard Hooker, George Herbert, and Robert Sanderson. Along with these biographies, the book also includes Walton's famous treatise on fishing, The Complete Angler. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part being dedicated to the biographies of the aforementioned men. Each biography provides a detailed account of the individual's life, their contributions to their respective fields, and their personal beliefs and values. The second part of the book is dedicated to The Complete Angler, which is considered one of the most important works on fishing in the English language. The Complete Angler is a pastoral discourse on the joys and virtues of fishing, and it is written in a conversational style that is both informative and entertaining. It includes detailed descriptions of fishing techniques, equipment, and various types of fish, as well as musings on the beauty of nature and the pleasures of a simple life. Overall, The Complete Angler: And The Lives Of Donne, Wotton, Hooker, Herbert And Sanderson is a fascinating book that combines biography, philosophy, and practical advice on fishing. It is a must-read for anyone interested in English literature, history, or the art of angling.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
