River Keeper: The Life of William James Lunn is a biography written by John Waller Hills. The book tells the story of William James Lunn, a legendary river keeper who worked on the chalk streams of southern England in the early 20th century. Lunn was a master of his craft, and his expertise in fly fishing, river management, and conservation made him a revered figure in the angling world. The book covers Lunn's life from his childhood in rural Hampshire to his rise as a river keeper on the River Test, one of the most famous trout streams in the world. The author draws on extensive research and interviews with Lunn's family and colleagues to paint a vivid picture of the man and his world. Through Lunn's story, the book also explores the history of fly fishing and river management in England, as well as the social and cultural changes that shaped the countryside in the early 20th century. River Keeper: The Life of William James Lunn is a tribute to a remarkable man and a bygone era of rural life. It is a must-read for anyone interested in fly fishing, conservation, or the history of the English countryside.This is a new release of the original 1936 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
