My Dargle

RARE FIND - SIGNED COPY!

For South African fly fishers, the Dargle is far more than a place on the map. It is one of the birthplaces of trout fishing in this country, a valley woven into the history, traditions and heritage of generations of anglers who have made the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands their spiritual home. In this beautifully researched and deeply personal account, Brian Griffin tells the story of the Dargle Valley and the pioneering families who shaped it during its first century of settlement. Rich with historic photographs, family memories and fascinating local stories, the book paints a vivid portrait of a remarkable farming community, its people and the timeless landscapes that continue to captivate visitors today. Anyone who has fished the Midlands – or dreams of doing so – will find themselves drawn into the history of one of South Africa's most treasured trout regions. The rivers, farms and rolling hills that have inspired generations of fly fishers provide the backdrop to a story every lover of the Midlands will appreciate. Better still, this is a signed copy, making it an especially desirable addition for collectors of South African angling and Midlands literature. B&w photographs throughout. Very good condition. Softcover, 21cm x 15cm, 148 pages.
