About This Item
Guildford CT: Lyons Press, 2013. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. cloth, dust jacket, 284 pages. : illustrated, That one could "walk drishod on the backs" of schools of salmon, shad, and other fishes moving up Atlantic coast rivers was a not uncommon kind of description of their migratory runs during early Colonial times. Accounts tell of awe-inspiring numbers of spawners pushing their way upriver, the waters "running silver," to complete life cycles that once replenished critical marine fisheries along the Eastern Seaboard. This is a hugely important, fascinating, and unique look at the fish of North America whose history and life-cycles and conservation challenges.
