[EAN: 9781330049204], Neubuch, [PU: Forgotten Books, United States], Language: English Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from The Art of Angling: For Beginners Angling is the art of catching fish by means of a rod, line, and baited hook; it is so termed because when held over the surface of the water, the apparatus forms an angle. This art, which is practised either for means of support or amusement, has long held a high position among the sports of merrie England; men of the highest intellect have delighted in its practice; it is neither confined to England, ages, or grades of society, for we read of it in the Book of the Prophet Isaiah: - The fishers also shall mourn, and all they that cast angle into the brooks. - chap. xix, v. 8, and also in the records of ancient Egypt, Assyria, c. It is a fact admitted by almost all writers, that England has been, from the earliest period of her history, the most zealous propagator of the art of Angling.
