A Master’s Guide To Building A Bamboo Fly Rod – Garrison & Carmichael – 1995 w/ Provenance

A Master’s Guide To Building A Bamboo Fly Rod – Everett Garrison & Hoagy Carmichael – 1995 (2nd printing). “By unanimous agreement, this is simply the best work on the subject – the definitive book. Mr. Garrison, a mechanical engineer by training, built perhaps the finest rods ever – and describes how it’s done. He died before the book was first published (in 1977) though his protege, Hoagy B. Carmichael, completed it and brought it to publication. Essential reading for all who admire fine bamboo rods. A useful section is included on restoration, refinishing and repair as well.” This published by Meadow Run Press. This book from the private library of the Weiler family. Milton C. Weiler Sr. was one of the premier sporting artists of his time, known for his work with the Derrydale Press and many other sporting publishers. He was also an avid outdoorsman, with deep roots to the Anglers’ Club of New York and the DeBruce Fly Fishing Club in the Catskills.
