A History Of Fish And Fishing In The Upper Mississippi River by Harriet Bell Carlander is a comprehensive account of the history of fish and fishing in the Upper Mississippi River. The book covers the period from the early 1800s to the mid-1900s and explores the various fish species that have inhabited the river over the years. It also delves into the various fishing techniques used by the Native American tribes and early settlers, as well as the commercial fishing industry that developed along the river in the late 1800s. The book provides a detailed account of the decline of fish populations due to overfishing and pollution, as well as the efforts made to restore the river's ecosystem. The author draws on a wide range of sources, including historical records, scientific studies, and personal accounts, to create a vivid and engaging narrative. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Upper Mississippi River and the impact of human activity on the environment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
