Tom Quinn has written a number of books about the history of the English countryside as well as books on fishing, eccentrics, long walks, railways, early aviation and the First World War. He is the author of BB Remembered, the life of children's author and illustrator Denys Watkins-Pitchford (better known as BB), The World's Greatest Shooting Stories, Heaven upon Earth, and Collecting Fishing Tackle, all of which were published by Quiller. A keen walker and fisherman he is also the author of several books about the Royal Family. He writes occasional obituaries for The Times and has edited a number of magazines including The Countryman.

'The charm of this book lies in its ability to celebrate angling not just as a hobby but as an art form—where skill, patience, and dedication combine to create moments of pure exhilaration. Whether recounting a long-sought catch, an epic struggle with a giant fish, or a serene victory on a quiet riverbank, Quinn’s narrative is infused with the excitement and satisfaction that only a successful fishing expedition can bring.'
