The last fish tale the fate of the Atlantic and survival in Gloucester, America's oldest fishing port and most original town

Kurlansky, Mark. (Author). Gardner, Grover. (Added Author). Blackstone Audiobooks. (Added Author).

Summary: This is the tale of our earth's disappearing fisheries and a vanishing way of life that has defined coastal towns throughout history. The colorful, exuberant story of the fishing town of Gloucester is the lens through which Kurlansky looks at a global tale. Gloucester was established in 1623 as a cod-fishing station. Today, it struggles on, its future uncertain. The last fish tale is a wake-up call to a tragedy in the making.
