Excellent Story about one aspect of Fly Tying

[James Smith]

FREE BOOK I received the book "The Feather Thief" as a gift from my nephew. I found it a very well-written true story of a young man who became so obsessed with tying classic Salmon flies that he decided to steal precious (and in some cases, priceless) bird pelts from a museum to obtain the feathers to create his works of art. Normally, I do not give away books I receive as a gift, but this is a very interesting book for a very specific audience. To that end, I would like to share it with a member here on FAOL. I will gladly ship this book to the first person who responds that they would like it. Since I will be paying for the shipping, I am afraid that I will have to limit this to members who are located in the United States for them to enjoy. https://www.amazon.com/Feather-Thief...19102591&psc=1 Jim SmithLakeland, Florida

I read the book and recommend it to fly tyers and bookworms.

It looks like we don't have many avid readers here on FAOL, or... I prefer to think that everyone is busy either fishing or stocking up their fly boxes for the fishing season.Jim Smith
