Arnold Gingrich

The heretofore little known, impact (on the wage-price structure) of the mother-in-law who does not know she is a mother-in-law is here recounted, together with other data of life and times in the 1920s, by Arnold Gingrich. He was first editor of ESQUIRE and since 1952 has been its publisher. This remembrance is drawn from his forthcoming memoir, TOYS OF A LIFETIME,to be published next fall by Knopf.

The founding editor of ESQUIRE and publisher of that magazine since 1952, Mr. Gingrich is known among his angling friends as a devoted fly fisherman who has scored a success with his skillful handling of light rods and light tackle. We are happy to publish the following excerpt from his new book, THE WELL-TEMPERED ANGLER, soon to f>e published by Knopf.
