Description:

Compleat Tangler
What do fishermen really get up to when they abandon a warm bed before the crack of dawn, stuff a haversack with tins of assorted maggots, half a hundredweight of pulped bread and a folding campstool, and disappear into the drizzle? Thelwell presents his report.

Play it as it Lies
The perfect gift for any golfer who has experienced the horrors of sporting the wrong attire on course, losing his ball, or been wronged by unforgivable gamesmanship. Thelwell guides the reader out of the bunker and onto the fairway.

Three Sheets in the Wind
Arriving on a summer weekend at any stretch of water without one’s own craft behind the car or swaying proudly at its moorings is like attending a dance with a broken leg – not to mention the damage to one’s social status. This is a humorous manual of instruction for sailors anywhere.

Up the Garden Path
This humorous cartoon guide covers all aspects of gardening, from how to make a hole in the frozen fish pond to how to get your mower out of the shed, and includes a calendar of essential work throughout the year.
