Contact seller4-star sellerSixth Printing; Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Dust Jacket. Revised Edition. Ex-Library; B & W ; 4 1/4 x 7"; xxxvii, 328 pages; Hard cover has red spine with faded gold lettering. Former library books with typical markings. Missing DJ. Front and rear gutters weak. Pages clean and tight. Illustrated with b/w pictures. 'This littl…e volume, more or less of pocket size, is designed primarily to meet the needs of the amateur outdoor naturalist, its main purpose being to enable a worker with the minimum of technical knowledge quickly and easily to identify any species of fish likely to be found in the area treated. The author therefore begins by defining what is meant by the term fish, and describes briefly their general manner of life. A short chapter is devoted to descriptions of the various types of environment included in the region under survey, which extends from the cold boreal waters of Labrador through the temperate seas of the Atlantic seaboard of America down to the warm tropical waters of the Gulf of Mexico. An offshore limit has been set at the twenty-five fathom line, and the brackish water zone marks the shoreward limit up streams and estuaries. The greater part of the book is devoted to analytical keys and descriptive matter. .'.

With a focus on accuracy and field utility, the guide includes numerous illustrations and keys designed to facilitate identification in a variety of environments.
