Living the Fishing

1983, British trade paperback edition, Routledge & Kegan Paul, London, U.K. 398 pages. Maps / b&w photos throughout. Very unusual title, beautifully done, which deals with the issue of "... the past and the future of all who live from the sea." Drawing on more than 150 life story interviews with men and women from Scottish and English fishing communities, the book also bases itself on hitherto unused private and public records. A really well done title in the publisher's History Workshop series.
