Giant Salmon: A Record of the Largest Atlantic Salmon Ever Caught

Giant Salmon: A Record of the Largest Atlantic Salmon Ever Caught Review

The true fish tales of record Atlantic salmon fly catches around the world.

Fred Buller has spent four decades pursuing stories of Atlantic salmon weighing 50 pounds and more -sometimes a great deal more. This handsome book records every salmon weighing that much, so far as Buller has been able to discover, that has ever been caught on a fly. These true, and truly impressive, fish tales are about all sorts of fishers throwing their lines in Scotland, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Canada.

Each catch is numbered and told as a separate story using interviews, correspondence, published accounts, archival photographs and other reliable sources. Maps show the catch locations, and tables present the statistics clearly. Wherever possible, Buller has photographed the site where the battle between fish and angler occurred. In some cases, he has commissioned replicas of the successful fly. Often he has been able to include a photograph of the victor, or the cased fish, or both.

In addition to "Salmon Over 50 Pounds Caught on the Fly" and "Salmon Between 50 and 60 Pounds, Method Uncertain," Buller has compiled a section on "Salmon Over 60 pounds Caught by Any Method" -- an astonishing 152 stories of enormous fish caught by fly, bait, net or poaching. And notto exclude those who try, Buller also includes "Tales of Lost Fish."

Giant Salmon is a piscatorial scholarship unlikely to be rivaled. It is an affectionate testament to a world that is fast disappearing -- of great catches and huge fish.

Manatees: The Gentle Giants

Manatees: The Gentle Giants Review

How could a manatee with its whiskered face and distinctly rotund shape be mistaken for a seductive mermaid by ancient sailors? Manatees, the reclusive sea cows who love nothing more than to eat sea grass and sleep, are a marine mammal. They use their paddle-like tail to slowly cruise the coastal and inland waters of Florida. These sausage-shaped oddities have endeared themselves to us with their mysterious and gentle nature, shy curiosity, and whimsical face. Manatees: The Gentle Giants steps back from all of the controversy surrounding this endangered animal to present a photographic portrait of manatees just being manatees. This collection of photographs contains intimate portraits of mothers and calves as well as manatees doing amusing acrobatics and posing for the camera. Using his rapport with his subjects, the photographer captures not only the serene beauty of the springs, but also the manatees' natural curiosity and unusual physical traits. Many of the natural behaviors displayed in the pictures are surprising. The beautiful photographs are an excellent introduction to the personalities of these leisurely vegetarians. Readers who have fallen in love with manatees can use the lists of places where someone can see manatees either in captivity or in wild viewing areas. This book offers a priviledged glimpse into the world of the manatee narrating to us through photographs the beauty and drama that are these unique gentle giants.

3 Story: The Secret History of the Giant Man

3 Story: The Secret History of the Giant Man Review

What would it be like to stand head and shoulders above everyone else - and to keep growing? Unable to interact with a fragile world that isn't built to withstand your size? To live in a house that doesn't fit you anymore - with a wife who doesn't either? Craig Pressgang's life is well documented in his official CIA biography, "Giant Man: Pillar of America," but the heroic picture it paints is only half the story. The continuous growth caused by Craig's strange medical condition brings a variety of problems as he becomes more isolated and unknowable. Told in three eras by three women with unique relationships with Craig, 3 Story follows his sad life from his birth to the present. Harvey Award winner Matt Kindt (Super Spy, Pistolwhip) brings his innovative design and storytelling sensibility to this poignant look at what it really means to be different, alienated from the rest of the world.
