Another of my collection that was lurking on the book shelf Diana came across I did not even remember I had.
1889 edition from John Nimmo Publisher, London , The Complete Angler, authored by Walton and Cotton originally published 1653.
As you will see this came from The St Louis Library from the card and original catalog recieving stamp in 1914 for library lending.
It is somewhat fragile but the illustrations and the language of 17th century England are amazing.
I’m afraid to read it as it is sewn binding. But this is amazing for sure.
Some photos here.
