Book First Edition
Condition: new. (Hardcover, 2010). 2010 1st edition. 8vo (145 x 215mm). Pp287. B/w illustrations by the author. Blue & tan boards, spine titled in gilt. Small ink remainder mark to bottom edge but a fine new unread copy in dust-wrapper. "James Prosek offers a fascinating tour through the life history and cultural associations of the freshwater eel, exploring its biology in streams and epic migrations in the ocean, its myth and lore, its mystery and beauty. Prosek travels the globe to tell the story of the eel - from New York to New Zealand; from Europe to Japan and the small island of Pohnpei in Micronesia, where freshwater eels are worshipped by members of the eel clan. Along the way he introduces individuals whose lives are most connected with the eels' story - including fishermen, conservationists, and scientists seeking to uncover the eels' elusive home in the Sargasso Sea and their spawning places in other oceans of the world. Though freshwater eels have been here for hundreds of millions of years, populations are rapidly declining, due largely to dams, overfishing, pollution, and perhaps even global climate change." "A mesmerizing biography and history of this intriguing and mysterious creature. It is also a telling look at humanity, the will to persist, and the ever-changing relationship between man and the natural world." PREVIOUS PRICE £19.95.

Book
Soft cover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reading Copy of Uncorrected Proof in paperback of First Edition. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. "They are the only fish that spawn in the middle of the ocean but spend their adult lives in freshwater. They can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and even cross over land. They are revered as guardians and monster-seducers by New Zealand's Maori and have inspired myths concerning breadfruit, banana, and coconut among the Pacific Island peoples. Often viewed with disgust in the West, they are a multibillion-dollar business in the Asian food market--the Japanese eat them to beat summer fatigue. And they are often mistaken for snakes. They are eels--one of the world's most amazing and least understood fish. (Yes, fish.) James Prosek offers a fascinating tour through the life history and cultural associations of the freshwater eel, exploring its biology in streams and epic migrations in the ocean, its myth and lore, its mystery and beauty. [] Illustrated with original etchings by the author, EELS is a mesmerizing biography and history of this intriguing and mysterious creature. It is also a telling look at humanity, the will to persist, and the ever-changing relationship between man and the natural world." [publisher copy] "It is a great relief on this deceptively familiar earth to be reminded that the natural world goes on replete with mysteries. Few are so intertwined with our terrestrial and marine preconceptions as the great family of eels. James Prosek explores their astonishing lives in service to our proper awe of nature. This is a delightful work with the urgency of a good detective story."--Thomas McGuane. "A wonderful account of far-flung travels in pursuit of the secrets of the earth's most mysterious fish. Fascinating and beautifully rendered."--Peter Matthiessen. "EELS is more than a fish book. It is an impassioned defense of nature itself. In EELS, Prosek passes on the truth that the often disdained eel, like all migratory fish, is vital and mysterious and worthy of our full effort to bring it back."--New York Times Book Review. Pristine paperback ARC w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued.
