The history of salmon worldwide is not a happy one; overfishing and habitat loss have destroyed the once-great Atlantic runs and severely damaged those of North American's west coast. Only in Alaska have management regimes and habitat protections safeguarded the fish that so many depend upon--so far. Alaskans know that to face the challenges ahead we need to recognize our shared dependence and responsibility. We need to know one another's stories and to question what it will take to maintain salmon runs, ecological health, and the place of salmon in our lives. Made of Salmon brings together over fifty diverse Alaskan voices to celebrate the fish that holds a central place in the lives, cultures, and values of those who depend on salmon for food, livelihoods, recreation, and a sense of community. The longer works by some of Alaska's finest writers thoughtfully and artfully explore the significance of salmon in the lives of Alaskans. The shorter, more anecdotal works add their writers' own "salmon love" to the mix. Photographer Clark James Mishler visually captures Alaskans fishing for, catching, preserving, and eating salmon from Southeast to Bristol Bay and points between and beyond. This book is an effort to bring heart-and-mind stories from every corner of our salmon-loving state into a conversation that will delight and energize readers everywhere.
