Items related to The Harvest of the Sea (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Harvest of the Sea The "Harvest of the Sea" has been a great success - not because it has sold so well that a third edition is now called for, or that the critics and reviewers have praised it highly, but because it has led to a continuous discussion of fishery economy ever since the volume was issued from Albemarle Street, and has therefore, in the best sense, fulfilled its "mission." All fishery subjects are now discussed with calmness as well as increased knowledge; and the men who, along with myself, ventured eight years ago to direct attention to what was wrong, will never again be tabooed or written down as visionaries or enthusiasts. Common sense has triumphed, and much in our fishery economy that was wrong has been made right. The present edition of the work has been thoroughly revised. Much of the matter contained in the previous issues has been excised as being out of date or otherwise unnecessary, and a considerable amount of new, and, I hope, interesting information, gathered at home and abroad since its first publication, is included in the following pages. Every chapter of the book has been carefully revised, and those chapters thought to be too long have been divided, especially in cases where the natural and economic history of particular fishes admitted of that being done. Recent official statistics of the Scotch and Irish fisheries are included in this edition, and a new chapter on Aquariums and Fishery Exhibitions has been interpolated, as well as new stories of fisher life.
