Down the Shore - Hardcover

by Nance Trueworthy (Author), Michael Crowley (Author)

Photographer Nance Trueworthy and commercial-fishing journalist Mike Crowley paint a handsome--and accurate--portrait of the men and women who earn a living in commercial fisheries along the coast of Maine, where inshore fishing is more than just a business. It's a lifestyle, one that defines each day not only for those who fish, but for their families. Thanks to Trueworthy's thoughtful color images and Crowley's easily digested descriptions, this is a magical world of alewives, softshell clams, lobsters, sea urchins, and northern shrimp, to mention just a few.
