LOBSTER GANGS OF MAINE by James M. Acheson

16.95

The groundbreaking work on the culture and economics of lobster fishing. Acheson replaces our romantic image of the lobsterman with descriptions of the highly territorial and hierarchical "harbor gangs," daily and annual cycles of lobstering, intricacies of marketing the catch, and the challenge of managing a communal resource.
