J. Edson Leonard's book is a monumental achievement in fly-fishing literature, serving as a single-volume encyclopedia on the world of artificial flies. The author provides a deeply detailed and scientific exploration of entomology, covering the life cycles of aquatic insects and their importance to the fly fisher. The book also offers a wealth of practical information on every aspect of the craft, from the selection of hooks and materials to detailed instructions for tying a vast array of patterns for both freshwater and saltwater species. It is lauded for its clear line drawings and extensive diagrams that accompany the text. For the serious angler, tier, or student of entomology, this book is a timeless and indispensable resource.
