1 Upton, JoeAmaretto
Camden, ME International Marine Pub. Co. 1986 0877422230 / 9780877422235 First Edition Hard Cover Near Fine Near Fine 
First printing. Black binding. 164 pages. Black & white photographic illustrations. Book is nearly fine, with minor rubbing at base of spine. Dust jacket is also near fine, with spine sunned, some crinkling and two miniscule 1/16" tears at base of spine and a crease on back flap. Now in a clear archival cover. ~~ A lyrical description of the way of life of the herring fishermen off the Maine coast. The author describes the traditions of this vocation as well as the realities of modern competition and of commerce with sardine companies, and tells of his experience rebuilding a fishing vessel originally made in 1918. "Joe Upton's prose has rarely been matched in the nautical literature. He draws from the place and the circumstances a mythic dimension of people in an intimate dance with their natural surroundings, a dimension that is entirely universal yet too much missing from the society most of us know." --DJ. A lovely copy. 
Price: 17.00 USD
