"The words flow as easily and clearly as a well-oxygenated salmon stream and the text is illustrated with a wide variety of excellent photographs; including, surprisingly, a few of semi-naked beauties modelling attire made entirely out of salmon skin. . . . [the book] is first class and a great read. I heartily recommend it to all of you who, as I do, love and revere the ''King of Fish.''"-Fly Fishing & Fly Tying (Fly Fishing & Fly Tying )"Contains many nuggets of good science. . . . As Coates so eloquently reminds us, we still have much to learn from our salmon-worshipping ancestors."--Times Literary Supplement (Richard Shelton Times Literary Supplement )
