Hoagy Carmichael & Everett Garrison - This edition is bound in full two-toned cloth, with a cloth slipcase!New edition on nicer paper, tipped in photo + rods now shown in color. 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 protégé, Hoagy B. Carmichael, completed it and brought it to publication. This edition is bound in full two-toned cloth, with a cloth slipcase. There are color photos of many of Garrison’s rod models included in this revised edition (1998), as well as a tipped-in color photo of the great rod maker near the title page.
Essential reading for all who admire fine bamboo rods. A useful section is included on restoration, refinishing and repair as well. 9x11 inches, 600 photos, 296 pages.
