Salmon eBook

The History of a Common Fate. During his research Mark Kurlansky travelled widely and observed salmon and those who both pursue and protect them in the Pacific and the Atlantic, in Ireland, Norway, Iceland, Japan, and even the robust but not as frequently visited Kamchatka Peninsula. This world tour reveals an eras-long history of man's misdirected attempts to manipulate salmon and its environments for his own benefit and gain, whether for entertainment or to harvest food. From the bestselling author of 'Salt', 'Cod', 'The Big Oyster', '1968', and 'Milk'.
