Walton started as an iron-monger's apprentice in London and eventually began his own business. He was a strong Royalist and fervent Anglican. He developed a wide circle of friends of culture and learning and eventually wrote a number of biographies, but is probably best remembered for The Compleat Angler (1653), a book describing the simple pleasures of fishing.
