An anthropologist describes the working world of Maine lobstermen, focusing on the intricate personal network that sustains them. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I live here in the midst of the coast of Maine, and this book is factual, absorbing, entertaining (to me, anyway), and historically significant. The world of the independent lobsterman is rapidly changing, but these guys are competent, tough, and they have their own code of discipline. If you want to understand better this unique part of America, this book is for you.
