CONWAY, Capt. C.C.W.S. Sunlit Waters. An Introduction to The Art of Fishing with Light Tackle. Bombay: Thacker & Co., Ltd. [June 1943].
4to. Publisher's cloth-backed boards, colour illustrated dust-wrappers (the variant with the smaller typeface), not price-clipped; pp. [xiii], 161, [3], with a colour-photographic frontispiece of a fisherman in a pith-helmet, casting into a fast-running river, 12 other photographic plates (two in colour), and copious diagrams of tackle and locations throughout; wrappers a little darkened and with a few marginal tears, light offsetting from endpapers, internally very clean and fresh, making this a rare survival of a colonial fishing guide, beautifully produced during the Second World War.
Third impression. This is a practical guide to fishing in India, published, "in these hard times when money is scarce". Captain Conway continues: "I have set out to make the fisherman who will use the tackle described as self-dependent as possible, and I even claim that he can set himself up for a modest sixty rupees … " (Preface).
See Elliott, Field Sports in India, London, 1973, pp. 171-182.
