Description
Book Synopsis
This guidebook, with its brief, informative text and 408 color illustrations, is designed for the fishwatcher, that inquisitive person--whether swimmer, tidepool watcher, skin or scuba diver, or fisherman--who wants to know something about the beautiful and abundant marine life from Labrador to Trinidad.
The 378 fish species that are described in words and pictures have been chosen as those most commonly sighted by divers or shoreline visitors, taken by fishermen or collectors, or found in the marketplace. Two maps assist the reader in locating the range of particular fishes, and there is a section on diving timps for beginners.
From the Back Cover
"These attractive, pocket-sized guides for fish watchers have been carefully written by Goodson and profusely illustrated in striking water colors by Phillip Weisgerber. Although designed for divers, fishers, aquarists and other nonprofessionals, these little books will undoubtedly find their way on to the shelves of many ichthyologists who will value them as quick references and for providing life-like, color renditions of many fish species found in American coastal waters."--Copeia"Designed for the fishwatcher, that inquisitive person--whether swimmer, tidepool watcher, skin or scuba diver, or fisherman--who wants to know something about the beautiful and abundant marine life from Labrador to Trinidad."--Outdoor Books, Mountain View Press
