Am I really that old?

I purchased this book in the early to mid 1970's. I read it then and found it to be usefull and informative. I wondered if it was still in print and found that it is. MY copy (copyright 1972) is a small hardcover and if there are updates to the new editions, then I am unaware of them. The book discusses fishing small flies for wary trout in clear streams, mostly in the east, but the techniques and flies used will work most anywhere. Several different fly patterns are discussed and there are well photographed (black and white in my copy) tying instructions. I have fallen somewhat away from fly-fishing, but still go out and whip the water surface to a froth on occasion. The flies described in this book work (at least in California and Oregon); I especially like the terrestrial patterns. I haven't read the book in over 30 years, but I recall enjoying it and liking the fly patterns.
