That sustaining work grows ever more difficult, she writes, as it becomes more unusual for individual fishers to market their goods in the Lower 48, the province of large-scale food distributors and of the "pale imitation that packages well." Reading this lovely book may well make you hungry--and not a little envious of Lord, who seems to have found a little corner of paradise in the backwoods of the far north. 1735334 1997 Fishcamp: Life on an Alaskan Shore total:9|5:0|4:6|3:3|2:0|1:0| 9 33 20 6 0 0 false false Tue Oct 13 15:51:53 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 13 15:57:24 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jul 09 06:03:39 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 09 06:04:01 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sat May 31 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed May 28 10:05:24 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 03 11:40:11 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu May 01 17:31:32 -0700 2008 Thu May 01 17:32:38 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sat Mar 29 08:19:51 -0700 2008 Sat Mar 29 08:20:21 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Thu Apr 05 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Thu Mar 06 19:35:32 -0800 2008 Thu Mar 06 19:36:21 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Sun Dec 21 21:52:33 -0800 2008 Sun Dec 21 21:52:33 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Dec 04 19:07:16 -0800 2008 Wed Jan 07 21:37:31 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sat Nov 29 15:07:46 -0800 2008 Sat Nov 29 15:07:46 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Fri Nov 14 21:32:32 -0800 2008 Fri Nov 14 21:32:32 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Thu Oct 23 22:45:16 -0700 2008 Thu Oct 23 22:45:16 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Tue Sep 02 18:14:30 -0700 2008 Tue Sep 02 18:14:30 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed Aug 27 01:48:42 -0700 2008 Wed Aug 27 01:48:42 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Mon Aug 18 20:37:45 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 18 20:37:45 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Aug 05 11:57:30 -0700 2008 Tue Aug 05 11:57:30 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed Jul 02 09:42:08 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 02 09:42:08 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu May 01 17:34:41 -0700 2008 Thu May 01 17:34:41 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sat Dec 29 14:38:06 -0800 2007 Sat Dec 29 14:38:06 -0800 2007 0 0 false false Mon Aug 20 15:18:25 -0700 2007 Mon Aug 20 15:18:25 -0700 2007 4 0 false false Mon Aug 20 00:22:18 -0700 2007 Mon Aug 20 00:22:18 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1737773
