Description
Fishing and Folk combines dialect vocabulary and literature as a way of explaining the North Sea coast and its social development is something of an experiment - a history-by-vocabulary possibly unique to this title. This book brings together a subject as challenging as the coast itself, with its scenery, weather, wildlife, boats and fishing operations, salmon-tickling, smuggling, communities and people.
