Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. The fishes of the salmon family have always been a source of fascination - not just to fishermen and fish culturists but also to all those interested in marine and freshwater life. Apart from being the most valuable group of the world's fish species, their mysterious ability to find their way home to their parent rivers to breed makes them among the most unusual. As natural resources of salmon decline worldwide and their farming, both for food and restocking, is fast becoming a major industry in Europe, North America, Japan and New Zealand, it is more important than ever to understand their special attributes. The Salmon Handbook is the first comprehensive and authoritative book to cover the whole field of salmonid biology, behaviour and cultivation. It describes the different species and provides a fund of information on feeding, diseases and their treatment, up-to-date farming techniques and marketing. As well as being an invaluable guide for fish farmers themselves, this book makes a major contribution to our knowledge of all aspects of the salmon family and so will be of great interest to all those responsible for preserving stocks of wild salmon, river keepers, water authorities, biologists and fishermen. Stephen Drummond Sedgwick, having recently retired as Chief Inspector of Salmon and Freshwater Fisheries for Scotland and with a lifetime's experience of fishing and fish farming, is uniquely qualified to write this book. With the help of Robin Ade's clear and attractive illustrations, his practical and informed advice will soon establish The Salmon Handbook as a standard work.
