Pages : 304
Book Description
“A necessary book for anyone truly interested in what we take from the sea to eat, and how, and why.” —Sam Sifton, The New York Times Book Review Acclaimed author of American Catch and The Omega Princple and life-long fisherman, Paul Greenberg takes us on a journey, examining the four fish that dominate our menus: salmon, sea bass, cod, and tuna. Investigating the forces that get fish to our dinner tables, Greenberg reveals our damaged relationship with the ocean and its inhabitants. Just three decades ago, nearly everything we ate from the sea was wild. Today, rampant overfishing and an unprecedented biotech revolution have brought us to a point where wild and farmed fish occupy equal parts of a complex marketplace. Four Fish offers a way for us to move toward a future in which healthy and sustainable seafood is the rule rather than the exception.

Our heroine Vanna falls in love with Fallon not knowing he’s an alien from a distant planet that’s trapped on earth waiting for rescue. Fallon our hero falls in love with our heroine but he’s bound by commitments he made to his home planet before arriving on earth. Fallon is desperate to keep his identity a secret from Vanna. He’s terrified she will turn away from him in fear if she knew he was an alien from a distant planet. Our heroine is bound by her love for Fallon. However, neither can move forward until Fallon’s commitments to his home planet has been fulfilled. A brief excerpt: “Who are you Fallon that you can do such things and, where do you come from?” “Please Vanna; please don’t make me tell you. I’m so afraid you’ll turn away from me in fear if you know, and I would never see you again. I couldn’t face life here without you.” Fallon raised her hand to his lips and kissed her fingers. Please my love don’t make me tell you.” “Fallon I have to know who I’ve fallen in love with. I’ve kept no secrets from you. I’ve told you every last detail about myself. Now it’s your turn. Who are you?” Vanna sat waiting holding his hand. Fallon couldn’t get the words past his lips. His eyes darted around like a trapped animal looking for an escape. Finally, the words rushed out as if they were so vile on his tongue he had to spit them out in a hurry. “I’m an…..

She didn’t start writing until she realized she was the last one in her family who still had memories of those who had already passed away. Their stories would be lost forever if someone didn’t capture them for the future. Saving the past began her writing career. After running out of family stories she found she enjoyed writing so much that she began making up short stories with plots that promised to keep the reader’s interest right up to the last page. Then she graduated to full length books. She’s loves writing about the paranormal and so far, she says she hasn’t run out of new book ideas.

Life at the End of a Rod
Author: Robert Veltidi
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1479730297
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
Life at the End of the Rod: Tales of a Fisherman is the lifelong journey of Robert Veltidi as he grows into a man. The outdoors was an important part of his upbringing, and he transported that love of the outdoors into his way of life. This book begins with his earliest recollection of fishing, takes us through a time of self-discovery and exploration, then to a rebirth of his love of fishing. Then the author leaps back into fishing as a means of relaxation and camaraderie between him and his father and brothers. Later on, after the death of his father, his son joins the group, along with a host of friends of all the Veltidi boys. Each story is the tale of one time that the author feels either fishing has affected his life or that he affected somebody elses life by fishing. My Fishing Beginnings is the authors first recollections of his fishing life. It introduces you to the boy that he was and later the man he would become. Like the prologue, My Fishing Beginnings, gives you the background information about the people in the rest of the stories. The Home Pond is a tribute to the authors grandparents. They played a huge role in his early childhood. Although the story takes place on one brief day, it depicts life in a rural area in the early 1950s. Huck Grows Up takes place over two summers and tells of the fishing adventures of the author when he was first given his independence and allowed to go out fishing and into town on his own. It was a turning point in his life when childhood dreams change and his life takes a new direction. The Norma K is the authors first experience into ocean fishing. Its interesting because the story is divided into three sub-chapters: The Norma K, The Norma K II, and The Norman K III. All three were party boats out of Point Pleasant, New Jersey, that the author fished on in various times in his life, first with his father, then with his wife, and finally with his son. All three experiences were surprisingly similar in some ways and subtlety different in others. The Norma K is the last story of the author as a child and it finishes up with him as an adult. The remaining stories depict the author as an adult or as near to one as he can be while still having as much fun as he can while fishing. My Turn is the first story the author ever wrote. It came after the death of his father, and it was part of the grieving process the author went through. The story tells of the changing of the guard when the son becomes the leader, and mentor, and fulfills one of his fathers lifelong dreams with surprising results. Fixing a Roof is a whimsical tale of grown men deciding to play hooky for the day and go fishing. This is where you meet Alan, the authors brother, and are introduced to one of Alans friends. Lake Ontario is an ongoing process; it started in 1987 when the authors father died and chronicled the first eight years of an ongoing trip that continues even to today. In this tale you become more acquainted with Doug, the authors son, and he becomes a vital part of the rest of the saga. New Jersey Trout is the exploration into new waters and the discovery of a whole new fishery. Along the way, the author meets new friends and bonds closely with his son. Tiger Muskies is the start of something new; the author has stepped up and bought a bigger boat. The small lake fishing and wading by the edge of the streams has been replaced by fishing for trophy sport fish. It is also the second story written by the author. Thoughts on Retirement is a reflective essay that was written one afternoon in August when the author was sitting down in his shed by the lake and was a little scared of what the future would bring. For the first time in fifty years the author was free of any obligations. Shark Fishing at Montau
