Reviews

One of the earliest and most popular precursors of nature writing in English has at last received the critical attention it deserves. Marjorie Swann's book is arguably the most complete study of The Compleat Angler ever written, and a vital corrective to outdated New Historicist interpretations. It makes an invaluable contribution to Walton studies and early modern ecocriticism. -Todd Andrew Borlik, author of Ecocriticism and Early Modern English Literature: Green Pastures
