TITLE: The Wonders of The Peake.
PUBLISHER: London: for Joanna Brome, 1681.

Cotton is also known for contributing a treatise on fly fishing for trout in the second edition of Izaak Walton's famous book, "The Compleat Angler".

Condition: Like new
Additional information: Roger Moukarzel is an internationally published documentary and fashion photographer. Born in Beirut in 1962, Moukarzel’s interest in war photography began when he was a teenager. For fifteen years, he worked for news agencies Sygma and Reuters, photographing the essence of combat and the resilience of humanity under the harshest circumstances.
Moukarzel’s photo-documentaries have been featured in many international publications. France’s legendary Paris Match printed one of his photographs – a scene of destruction and mayhem on a Beirut street – on the cover of its 40th anniversary issue.
Years spent documenting turmoil and disaster took a mental and physical toll on Moukarzel. He eventually shifted to fashion photography, a more glamorous (and less dangerous) field. In his own words, he explains: "A shift from scenes of death… to scenes of life A shift from the ugly face of war...
