Description
Warner tells us, in vivd dialogue and action-filled narrative, about the maritime life of the men of many nations and tongues, about the waning resources of the fishery, about those who refined the competence of fishing technology to the point of diminishing returns, about the extension of offshore limits. In an epilogue he explains how the new fishing leviathans nearly fished the oceans out but ran short of business before it was too late. - from Amzon
