Reviews of Hook, Line and Thinker Publisher:
Merlin Unwin Books (publisher's
website) His message? Fishing is good. I cannot recommend his book enough: it will, at the very least, give us anglers the philosophical ammunition to answer those who want to see the sport banned. Charles Clover,
Daily Telegraph Schwab's
book is a clever and measured response to the arguments levelled
at our sport...Consider and examine the responses he so elegantly
lays out ... the very least you can do is buy and read this book. After
reducing the perimeter of our opponents' arguments to rubble, he
undermines the foundations, carries away the spoil ...Schwab trashes
just about every aspect of the animal rights movements' philosophy. ... I can do nothing but heap praise on it. Graham
Marsden, Fishingmagic, www.fishingmagic.com Alexander Schwab has written an informative book that every hunter and angler should read. Ian
Scott, All-About Fly Fishing. www.about-flyfishing.com Hook, Line and Thinker is a fascinating analysis of whether angling is or can be cruel ... a thought provoking and original take on an issue of burning importance to all anglers. Charles
Rangeley-Wilson, The Field I
do hope that all those anglers who still think that we have nothing
to worry about and that they should (in the UK at least) have nothing
to do with those nasty blood thirsty people who hunt with "dogs",
will read this book and understand why they are so wrong. A good book essential for all ... required reading for anyone involved in fieldsports. Midlander,
The Countryman's Weekly He
has two very interesting appendices entitled "Key Words"
and "Animal Rights Quotes" which are worth the price of
the book on their own ... so think of buying two copies and send
one to your old school ... ...highly recommended... The
Flyfishers.
