In this lively history and celebration of the Pacific razor clam,
David Berger shares with us his love affair with the glossy,
gold-colored Siliqua patula and gets into the nitty-gritty of how
to dig, clean, and cook them using his favorite recipes. In the
course of his investigation, Berger brings to light the long
history of razor clamming as a subsistence, commercial, and
recreational activity, and shows the ways it has helped shape both
the identity and the psyche of the Pacific Northwest. Towing his
wife along to the Long Beach razor clam festival, Berger quizzes
local experts on the pressing question: tube or gun? He illuminates
the science behind the perplexing rules and restrictions that seek
to keep the razor clam population healthy and the biomechanics that
make these delicious bivalves so challenging to catch. And he
joyfully takes part in the sometimes freezing cold pursuit that
nonetheless attracts tens of thousands of participants each year
for an iconic "beach-to-table" experience. Watch the book trailer:
