Boring Books for Bedtime Readings to Help You Sleep

The Compleat Angler, by Isaak Walton, Part 1

03 Nov 2025

Description

Let's cast our lines into the river of relaxation with this classic about the art of fishing. This time, we begin with a conversation between a hunter, a falconer, and an angler about the relative superiority of their professions. But first, an overwrought patron dedication and lengthy, self-deprecating epistle to the reader, in perfect 17th century style. Deliciously dull!   Help us stay ad-free and 100% listener-supported!
