The sea has captivated people ever since humans first set sail on it; its beauty, its force, the mysteries it holds. For the few who make their living from it, trying to understand it, to second guess its ever-changing moods, creates an addiction to salt water that keeps us coming back. My Fishing Life documents the reality of that life. This book lifts the lid on what it's like to be one of the country's very few female fishermen, and also do justice to an iconic industry that, while it feeds and impacts almost all of us, remains one of our most mysterious and misunderstood.

In this joyous journey around the wild edges of Britain, Christopher Hart takes us through the life, ecology and history of the humble British hedge, showing us how this much-loved (but somewhat overlooked) feature is inextricably woven into our language, history and culture.

Die Wellen umspülen Ihre nackten Füße, während Sie auf Ihrem Spaziergang am Meer entlang schlendern. Das Rauschen des Windes kitzelt in den Ohren, während Möwen und andere Wattvögel zwitschern und singen und ab und zu ein Fischerboot weiter draußen auf dem Meer vorbeifährt.

Willkommen im Hafen, wo die Fischerboote das Ufer verlassen, um ihren täglichen Fang einzuholen. Nehmen Sie Platz und genießen Sie die Geräusche der arbeitenden Fischer, den Ruf der Möwen und das Plätschern des Wassers am Kai.

Stellen Sie sich vor, Sie liegen an einem Strand in den Tropen. Die Wellen plätschern sanft über den feinen weißen Sand. Im Hintergrund zwitschern exotische Vögel, und Sie spüren die Wärme der Sonnenstrahlen auf Ihrer Haut. Sie schlagen ein Buch auf, um zu lesen, und bekommen ein kühles Getränk serviert, bei dem die Eiswürfel genüsslich gegen das Glas klirren. Ab und zu dringt Musik von der Strandbar herüber und die Zikaden summen in den Palmen.

В книге Марка Курлански скромная треска становится главным персонажем мировой истории. Ради трески европейцы начали пересекать Атлантику — и именно благодаря треске столь дальние плавания стали возможны. Из-за трески велись войны и начинались революции, она служила основой рациона целых народов, от нее зависели экономики разных стран, и колонизация Северной Америки произошла во многом благодаря ей. Автор знакомит читателей с людьми, чья жизнь тесно связана с этой уникальной рыбой, — исследователями, торговцами, писателями, шеф-поварами и, конечно, рыбаками.
