A fishing buddy loaned me this book just before Christmas and what with all the other books that my wife graciously preloaded onto my brand spanking new Kindle, I have just got round to reading a proper book for a while.
John's Autobiography is a very good read, a warts and all story of his life from a small boy up till 1999... it is informative and packed full of pictures of himself his friends and his family... He comes across as very personable and I enjoyed it... some of the subject matter could be construed as controversial, possibly of the time and he is very outspoken on the subjects of abstraction and predation, but then we all are to a degree...
As one of the leading figures in Angling, his contribution to the Angling Press and the Media are without compare... I especially enjoyed the charting of his rise from occasional writer to owner of Kazan Productions...
All in all a good read....
