Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes and Reminiscences of My Life as an Angler The following pages were written merely for the perusal of my children, in order to bring before them, as clearly and faithfully as possible, a picture of their father's life as an angler. When I became aware that many of my personal friends were also desirous to possess a record in which so many of their deeds with rod and line were inscribed together with my own, I yielded to a wish so flattering to myself, and the little work was printed for private circulation among them. The reception which it has met with from the many distin guished anglers whom I am proud to call my friends has been most gratifying, and I am accordingly emboldened to take a further step, and send it forth into the wide field of angling literature, there to abide the criticisms of the general public. During four years I steadily refused to take such a course, feeling persuaded that an autobiography of this character which detailed so many particulars relating to other persons, was more fitly restricted to a limited circle of readers. After however I had received eighty letters begging for its publi cation, together with a vast number of verbal requests, I yielded, in the hope that no one whose name is mentioned in its pages will be in the smallest degree wounded, and that the general reader will deal gently with the numerous deficiencies to which no one can be so keenly alive as the author.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes and Reminiscences of My Life as an Angler, Vol. 1 My dear Angler Friends, - Permit me to say that whatever blame may attach to me for printing the following notes must in equity be shared with you. The work was originally meant simply to gratify my children, and to make them acquainted with one portion of their father's past life. As the manuscript proceeded, my doubts of its merit became so great that I submitted portions of it to the criticism of certain of you, my angler friends. The verdict of each has been to the effect that the manuscript possessed sufficient interest for anglers generally to warrant its publication. Highly gratified as I was, I thought this decision too friendly to be just; however, after some deliberation, a compromise has been effected, and I undertake to print my angling notes for private circulation only.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Angler Notes at the foot of the page are a horrible nuisance, distracting the attention of the reader to the greatest degree. It therefore seemed better to lump them together at the end of each chapter in the shape of an appendix, and the reader can please himself whether he refers to them or not. If he only desires to read the prose - poetry of the text, he can skip the chapters in smaller type and if he turns to the book for practical directions, he can look at the appendices only. The arrangement, therefore, is this: A chapter of the text, and then an appendix containing, first, Historical Notes, chiefly from Hawkins, and referred to by the smaller letters in the text; secondly, General Notes by the Editor, referred to by numerals and third, a Practical Essay by the Editor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Angler's Reminiscences: A Record of Sport, Travel, and Adventure Young, of Hingham, Norfolk County, England, who landed in New Haven, Conn., October 21, 1640. He subsequently received from Governor Dougan, under James II., a grant of acres of land lying between Southampton and Montauk Point. The obituary notice of William, son of Peter, the founder of the Southold Colony, who died September 30, 1684, and is so recorded, is spelled Holyoake. Through his mother he is descended from Rev. Thomas Mayhew, Governor of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard, under a grant from Lord Sterling in 1614. Of their descendants, one branch became Quakers, and to this Fitz Greene Halleck, the poet belonged; others comprised among their numbers eminent fighting men, distinguished in the American revolution and since, both on land and sea. During the revolution Joseph Hallock fell as commander of a privateer; William Halleck commanded packet boats on Long Island Sound; another William Hallock owned and commanded a vessel sunk by the English ship Snow, and had two sons, Jeremiah and Moses, who were also soldiers of the revolution. During the Civil War many members of the family fought in support of the Union, notably Major General Henry W. Halleck. A portion of Charles Hallock's life was passed on his uncle's farm, at Plain held, in a wilderness section of the Green Mountains in Massachusetts, where he imbibe'd those tastes for. Outdoor sports and adventure which so largely shaped his course through life. In those youthful days he occupied a secluded shooting box on the estate in preference to the farm house, except in coldest winter weather. Having fitted for college at Hopkins Grammar School, in New Haven, Conn., he entered Yale in 1850, but subsequently went to Amherst, where, in 1862, during his sophomore year, he printed a college paper named the Scorpion. This seems to have been his first journalistic venture, and the taste for newspaper work then imbibed, or more probably inherited from his father, who was at that time the active head of the New York Journal of Commerce, induced him to discontinue his collegiate course of study early in the junior year and enter the printing office of his father. There he mastered the rudiments of a journalistic education. Although not a college graduate, the faculty of Amherst subsequently conferred upon him, in 1871, the degree of A. B. Extraordinary, the first honor of the kind which it had conferred. In the spring of 1855 he attached himself to the New Haven Register, and conducted that paper for a year and a half for its proprietor, M. A. Osborn, Esq., then collector of the port. In August, 1856, he accepted a salary and one sixteenth proprietary interest in the Journal of Commerce, and remained until September, 1861, when the political troubles threw him out of his chair, but not of his ownership in the paper, which at that time had increased to about one-tenth.
