Leon Chandler (1992 Angler of the Year--Fly Rod and Reel magazine) has written a Foreword to the book and a chapter on taking care of your fly lines. He said the following about the book None of us will ever know the hours, days, weeks, and years that Victor Johnson, Jr. spent doing research for this book. We, and all future generations of fly anglers, all owe him a debt of gratitude. This is a book that needed to be written."
