  Trout in Dirty Places - 50...

  Here is a guide to the most revolutionary development in British angling for many years: fly-fishing for trout and grayling in the very centre of towns and cities throughout the United Kingdom.
  
  From Sheffield to South London, from Merthyr Tydfil to Edinburgh, this is the cutting edge of 21st century fishing. Nothing is more surreal yet exhilarating than casting a fly for iconic clean-water species in the historic surroundings of our most damaged riverscapes – centres of post-industrial decay, but now also of rediscovery and regeneration.
  
  * fishing-focused profiles of 50 selected streams
  
  * interviews with local conservationists dedicated to restoring the urban rivers
  
  * local flies and emerging traditions, and
  
  * details of how to get involved and support this restoration work.
  This book guides readers towards relaxing, good-value fishing on their own doorsteps as a viable alternative to more costly (and carbon-intensive) destination angling: a positive lifestyle choice in challenging moral and economic times.
  
  No one author or publisher has yet attempted to bring this emerging trend of urban flyfishing into a single, epoch-making volume.

  Up to Scratch - Bareknuckle...

  "The fight game in the raw great contests and some really hard men. What a life!" Roy Shaw
  Prize-fighting was one of the greatest sporting attractions in the 18th and 19th centuries. Prize-fights attracted thousands of spectators from all walks of life and, nothwithstanding its illegality, was patronised by royalty and the aristocracy. The area outside London around Barnet, Whetstone, Finchley and up into Hertfordshire was one on the most popular for staging fights. Featured in Up to Scratch are many of the great champions - Tom Johnson, Daniel Mendoza, Jem Belcher, Tom Sayers and Jem Mace - as well as many forgotten but no less colourful fistic heroes.
  Up To Scratch powerfully evokes an age when pugilism was a barbaric, corrupt and yet primarily noble activity.

Here is the unique story of a working man whose odyssey took him from the tenements and factory work of Aberdeen to the mountains and islands of the Highlands, their people and their wildlife.
