The Compleat Angler

Hi all,

I read about this book only recently, although apparently it's a classic. There are many ebook editions with prices ranging from 0 to $12. Any recommendations on the best ones, free or not? I couldn't find it in the MR library. I tried the Gutenberg edition but found a huge OCR error after about 1 minute of reading, which does not bode well for the rest of the book.

You can get it here for epub or Kindle. The quality at eBooks@Adelaide is usually very good

Thanks for the link! The HTML version on the site looks very good, however the ePub version... I could download the web version I guess.

Downloads as a zip file. Import into calibre and convert to epub. Looks pretty good.
