About
Book of the Black Bass by mid-western medical doctor and author, James A. Henshall, details the complete scientific and life history of the black bass, a genus of freshwater fish in the sunfish family (family Centrarchidae) of order Perciformes. Sometimes erroneously called black trout-the name 'trout' more correctly refers to certain members of the salmon family-the black bass are distributed throughout a large area east of the Rocky Mountains in North America, from the Hudson Bay basin in Canada to northeastern Mexico. Black bass of all species are highly sought-after game fish, and bass fishing is an extremely popular sport throughout the bass's native range.
Complete with a practical treatise on angling and fly fishing and a full description of tools, tackle and implements, Book of the Bass is a remarkable work of angling and fly fishing literature on the subject of Black Bass that will appeal anyone "with an interest in a fish that has never been so fully appreciated as its merits deserve."
This edition is the 1904 revised edition, which contains much of the writings in Henshall's 1889 follow-up, More About the Black Bass.
Wonderfully illustrated throughout.
