ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Paperback, 1985). 1985 1st edition. Paperback. Pp72. B/w photographs & line illustrations, bibliography. Very good. "Although large expanses of water in Louisiana have been effectively used for crayfish farming for many years, attempts to farm cray…fish in Europe for human consumption have so far proved to be uneconomic. Much scientific information is available but there is a lack of material in everyday language for the ever-increasing number of people interested in the crayfish and its culture. This book fills that gap." .
