In A Rural Legacy Lost. Net Salmon Fishing on the River Dart in
Devon: An Occupation, Way of Life and Associated Dialect in
Terminal Decline? we learn about the tradition of harvesting salmon
as a means of business and pastime. Beginning with a biologically
appropriate explanation of salmon as a species, a rare and hardy
survivor of a fish that focuses its travels and migrations for the
sole purpose of reproduction, Nick Baker commences an introduction
of how people have worked to follow salmon, track its life cycle,
and measure the strength of its population over time. Referencing
multiple governmental agencies and professional organizations,
Baker reveals the challenges the salmon population faces with
regard to problems posed by global warming and climate change;
illustrates and organizes historical dialect and jargon; and
presents how the decline of salmon fishing and loss of farming has
impacted the housing and economic structure of Stoke Gabriel in
Devon. This expose of salmon fishing and the changing Devon
community is concluded with a list of potential issues the people
face and some solutions that may help.
