Each year wild Pacific salmon leave their oceanic feeding grounds and swim hundreds of miles back to their home rivers. The salmon's annual return is a place-defining event in the Pacific Northwest. However, despite massive spending, efforts to alter the endangered status of salmon have failed. In Salmon, People, and Place, fisheries biologist Jim Lichatowich exposes the misconceptions underlying salmon management and recovery programmes that have fuelled the catastrophic decline in Northwest salmon populations.
