       THE COVER FORTROUT FISHING IN AMERICA

      The cover for Trout Fishing in America is a photograph taken late in the afternoon, a photograph of the Benjamin Franklin statue in San Francisco’s Washington Square.

      Born 1706—Died 1790, Benjamin Franklin stands on a pedestal that looks like a house containing stone furniture. He holds some papers in one hand and his hat in the other.

      Then the statue speaks, saying in marble:

      PRESENTED BY

      H.D. COGSWELL

      TO OUR

      BOYS AND GIRLS

      WHO WILL SOON

      TAKE OUR PLACES

      AND PASS ON.

      Around the base of the statue are four words facing the directions of this world, to the east
