Rezensionen

'Mark Kurlansky's book is an epic, environmental tragedy, with the salmon at its centre as the abused hero... one of the great strengths of Kurlanksy's book is the way he links the fish's plight to so many major environmental concerns... Kurlanksy is at his best when illuminating the lives of people who have been disregarded in the name of progress.'
