Salmon, by Mark Kurlansky

<https://www.amazon.com/Salmon-Earth-History-Common-Fate/dp/1938340868/ref=sr_1_1?crid=766HM5S4PR88&dchild=1&keywords=salmon+mark+kurlansky&qid=1596559477&s=books&sprefix=Salmon+%2Caps%2C175&sr=1-1>

History and status of an important food fish and it's and our relationship with the environment over time and places. Informative and readable, like all of his other books. I give it two fins up.

Nyuk, nyuk, Steve. :-)

There are also historical/cultural recipes scattered through the book that might be of interest to RFCers. Maybe more for historical/cultural understanding than culinary delight. Gelled fish heads, anyone? :-)
