Nice is hardly a word that would describe this treatise. Required is a better word. This is the seminal book for the reel aficionado, the single book that can separate the ill-informed from the expert. There should be a test for the info in this book. As a gift, it is unsurpassed. As a purchase for yourself, it is a journey towards self-fulfillment as a reel-guru par excellence. This is the encyclopedia of our hobby. All smart people have purchased it, don't be the person to kill that streak.

Opinions differ of course.
