"Brodovitch was the model of the modern art director. The essence of contemporary magazine design - the driving pursuit of new ways to present visual material - can be traced to the example he set. While at Harper's Bazaar from 1935 to 1958, he created a design look whose energy, elegance, and simplicity captured the spirit of American fashion. Magnetic and controversial, he inspired the designers and photographers who attended his famous design laboratory with his constant admonition, "Astonish me!" (from the front cover).

A very handsome copy of this deluxe, essential guide to the fish and the fishing in New England and Eastern Canada. The book was written and largely illustrated by anglers for anglers (Turner's illustrations are remarkable, see below). The text favours fly-fishing, but covers all aspects of angling in the North East. William Harris (of the "American Angler") writes in the introduction: "Anglers, particularly those who delight in the higher branches of the art, seek for books on their favorite sport with an eagerness surpassing that of an ordinary collector of general literature." A.D. Turner was one of the artists who helped shape the American style of sporting art (along with the likes of Alexander Pope) and the chromolithographs of fish in these volumes made after his watercolors are among the most impressive of the period. A rare find in its mostly uncut state.
