Herring tales : how the silver darlins shaped human taste and history. - Murray, Donald S.
KORTE INHOUD
"In an odyssey around the coastlines of northern Europe, Donald S. Murray goes in search of a fish that once fed a continent, body and soul. He stitches together tales of the fish that was of central importance to the lives of our ancestors. Following a journey from Shetland and the Outer Hebrides to the western edge of Norway, the east of England and the fishing ports of Germany, the Netherlands and Iceland, Murray tells us how herring and those involved in its capture have been celebrated in art, literature, craft, music, and folkore. He contemplates the possibility of restoring the silver darlings of legend to our shores." -- Cover.
