Terranova is the story of Spain's twentieth-century industrial cod
fishery on the Grand Banks of Newfoundland. It combines oral
history (including interviews with over 300 participants in the
fishery) with socio-political-economic history to describe how the
industry and Spain itself evolved over seven decades. Terranova
pays special attention to how work and life onboard trawlers
changed in 1926, when Spain's industrial fishery began, and how
they have evolved through the turn of the twenty-first century. It
concludes by describing how technological advances and increased
competition among fishers brought the collapse of the Newfoundland
cod fishery in 1992.
