Over 25,000 fish species live in the world. The Atlantic coastline is home to a few hundred of these. The seventeen species illustrated and described in this book are commonly found between the "Capes": Cape Cod in Massachusetts and Cape Hatteras in North Carolina, but the ranges for some are much greater, even extending as far south as South America. Species illustrated include the American Eel, Pufferfish, Northern Pipefish, Oyster Toadfish, Striped Bass and a dozen others.
