With the respects of Oliver Gibbs Jr." Contents are a series of letters from a former Civil War officer to General Spinner on fishing in Minnesota. From the introduction: "These letters were begun with the purpose of amusing a little band of wild men in Washington who adopting the habits and customs of civilized life were found to be pining for their old sports; and chained to their office work the whole year round by the behests of public duty they were obliged to be led around in some way as these letters took them - On Paper - or starve their gushing fancies altogether except so far as they might be able to subsist upon the memory of what they had done with gun and angle before they came here. General F. E. Spinner Treasurer of the United States was the "Big Indian" of this band. Hence the letters were addressed to him; and it was upon his motion that they were given a wider reading than was first intended through The Spirit of the Times. H. D. McIntyre & Co hardcover
