This is a delightful work with the urgency of a good detective story. Thomas McGuane I loved it! A beautiful adventure story of one of the most wide-spread and least-known but ecologically important fish. Bernd Heinrich, author of Summer World Famous for his deeply informed, compulsively readable books on trout, writer-painter James Prosek (whom the New York Times has called the Audubon of the fishing world ) takes on nature s quirkiest and most enigmatic fish: the eel. Fans of Mark Kurlansky s Cod and The Big Oyster or Trevor Corson s The Secret Life of Lobsters will love Prosek s probing exploration of the hidden deep-water dwellers. With characteristically captivating prose and lavish illustrations, Prosek demystifies the eel s unique biology and bizarre mating routines, and illuminates the animal s varied roles in the folklore, cuisine, and commerce of a variety of cultures.
