He achieved notoriety in the Anglo-Spanish War (1654-1660), when the English army was disastrously defeated in Hispaniola - the two generals in charge were arrested and Venables himself was sent to the Tower of London. They did, however, capture Jamaica which "was a poor island then, and Cromwell must be praised for encouraging its development without any delay. Soon it became the most flourishing colony in the New World". Venables' life and career are considered in detail in the first half of this book, which gives a valuable insight into aspects of the Civil War, and particularly the West Indian expedition. How many angling books have a preface by Izaac Walton?! "I have read and practised by many books of this kind. yet I could never find in them that height for judgment and reason which you [Venables] have manifested in this". .
