It is a photographic perspective on a wide variety of creels, their makers, their materials, & their artistic appeal. With more than 200 different creels photographed, this book provides a comprehensive look at all the major categories of creels as well as some very rare, one of a kind creels that are tucked away in private collections. The authors have also provided pertinent information about the history & the makers of most of the creels. There is still much to learn about the subject & "The Art of the Creel" is a good place to start for anyone interested in fishing or folk art.
