The quest of the trout
Melbourne : Robertson & Mullens, 1926. Quarto, illustrated cards (the yapp edges with a couple of short tears), pp. 106, portrait frontispiece, tipped-in photographics, and line drawings, a very good copy, with very sparse light foxing, in good order. Inscribed on the half-title by noted doctor and expert fly fisher Sir Richard Rawdon Stawell (1864–1935) ‘To Mrs. Colin Chisholm from Richard Stawell Jan. 1930, with best wishes’, with ex libris bookplate of Teddie Chisholm designed by Harold Byrne. A rare Australian work on fly-fishing.
