A CHAPTER OF FISH

Arthur Michell Ransome (1884–1967) was an English writer, journalist and an agent of MI5.

This short piece of prose was collected and retold by Arthur Ransome to become later a part of 'Old Peter's Russian Tales'. This collection book represents stories that are told by old Peter. This time he is busy netting fish and he finds this occasion the best to tell the story about the first pike and the events that happened after its birth.
