De Volleerde Hengelaar / The Compleat AnglerDe Volleerde Hengelaar is uiteraard veel en veel meer dan een boek over vissen, wat bewezen wordt door het feit dat het op twee na nummer n is de Bijbel het meestverkochte boek in de Engelse taal is.

De Volleerde Hengelaar is uiteraard veel en veel meer dan een boek over vissen, wat bewezen wordt door het feit dat het op twee na - nummer één is de Bijbel - het meestverkochte boek in de Engelse taal is. Het bestaat nu meer dan drie eeuwen en honderdduizenden hebben ervan genoten en genieten er nog van. Sommigen dragen het altijd met zich mee - de kleinste uitgave meet amper 5 x 6cm! - en bekend is ook het verhaal van de Franse schrijver Maurois die vertelt over zijn bezoek aan het Britse parlement waarbij hij meemaakte dat er een hevige woordenstrijd ontstond omdat de minister van financiën de auteur Walton verkeerd geciteerd zou hebben... Vanwaar die grote en algemene belangstelling voor dit boek? Omdat De Volleerde Hengelaar een bepaalde filosofie ademt en geschreven is door een man van eenvoudige smaak, wiens genie lag in het feit dat hij erin slaagde het genot en de vreugde van een rustig en kalm buitenleven en zijn liefde voor de natuur onder woorden te brengen. Het boek dat Izaak Walton beroemd maakte, De Volleerde Hengelaar, verscheen voor het eerst in mei 1653, toen de zeer belezen auteur 60 jaar oud was. In samenwerking met Charles Cotton, Walton's jonge vriend en aangenomen zoon, verscheen in 1676 de vijfde editie aangevuld met nieuwe materiaal. De Volleerde Hengelaar moet men niet zien als een of ander leerboek over hengelen, maar als een der klassieken van de wereldliteratuur.

Great for the price
Size: Medium, Color: Grey
Nice and light material. Looks good. Suitable for hot temperatures and casual attire. The only thing I've noticed so far that isn't so great, is that the buttons are rather cheap and the middle part broke out on a few of them. Expect to resow some buttons. Otherwise great

Summer wedding kids suit
Color: Navy, Size: 10 Years, Color: Navy, Size: 10 Years
Bought this suit for my son in the 10 youth size and honestly was pleasantly surprised by the quality for the price. The navy color looks sharp and dressy without being too stiff or uncomfortable. The material has a little stretch, which helped it fit nicely and made it comfortable for him to move around in. The adjustable waist was a huge plus, especially for growing kids. It fit true to size overall, though the blazer sleeves were slightly long on my son. The pants had a nice slim look without being too tight. We paired it with white sneakers for a more modern look and it came out adorable. This would be perfect for weddings, graduations, concerts, communion, school events, or family photos. Overall, very happy with the purchase and would definitely buy again.

Very Modern Handsome Suit
Color: Grey, Size: 7 Years, Color: Grey, Size: 7 Years
This is an incredibly sharp looking suit for the little guy. Great price and features, too. I made a mistake in sizing up instead of down and first one was too sloppy on him and would need alterations. He is thin and very thin in the waist. There is a lot of adjustment with buttons in waistband and coat hides the bunching. This shirt and coat will easily take a fuller body than slim I believe. He loves posing in it and feels very classy. Best purchase for a formal suit that will last longer than most kids clothes size wise. Felt bad about returning but careful folding and packing got it good as new.

Sharp Looking Kids Suit With One Missing Piece
Color: Navy, Size: 7 Years, Color: Navy, Size: 7 Years
I ordered this suit for my 6yo son in a size 7 so he would have a little room to grow and get more wear out of it, and sizing is perfect. He did not need it for any specific occasion, he just wanted a suit because apparently kindergarteners sometimes wake up and decide they are businessmen now. Let me start with the positives because there are a lot of them. This is a very well made suit. The jacket, pants, and dress shirt are all surprisingly nice quality. The fabric does not feel cheap or flimsy at all. The jacket has good structure, the buttons are well attached, the seams are clean, and all the little details like the collar and pockets look great. It honestly looks like a proper little formal suit. The pants are nicely made as well and pair perfectly with the jacket. The white dress shirt underneath is also good quality and completes the whole look. Overall, it is a really sharp outfit and would absolutely work for special occasions like weddings, recitals, formal events, church, or family photos. Now for the reason I am deducting one star. The listing specifically shows and mentions that this set includes a bow tie. That was actually the main reason I chose this particular suit over others. Some options only had a standard tie or no tie at all, but my son specifically wanted a bow tie. Unfortunately, the bow tie was not included with mine. That was definitely disappointing because it was one of the main selling points for me when choosing this set. Now I have to go find a separate bow tie that matches, which I was hoping to avoid. That said, I do want to be clear that this issue does not take away from the actual quality of the suit itself. The suit is genuinely very well made and looks fantastic on him. If your child needs a suit for a wedding, formal event, recital, or something similar, this would absolutely work. My son mostly just wanted a suit because he thinks it is cool, so now he has one and can show up to school looking like the smallest CEO in kindergarten. Overall, this is a very nice quality suit set. I just wish the bow tie that was advertised had actually been included.
