Book review: Portraits of a Fly-Fishing Landscape
I bought this book based on the cover and imagined a nice, large coffee table book with a wealth of gorgeous pictures. A used price of well above 30 UK£ or 50 US$ indicated the same. But my disappointment was big when I saw the book. The images are gorgeous alright, but the book is a small and thin paperback without the least coffee table effect. I could of course have looked at the physical description of the book: 64 pages and a modest size of 22*16 centimeters or 8½ by 6 inches. Considering the price, that's a VERY expensive book, and not at all what I imagined - even though the images ARE beautiful.

Long story longer
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
