Book Description

Canadian Social History Series February 1, 2001
The collapse of the cod stocks off the coast of Newfoundland was one of the largest ecological disasters in Canadian history. In an attempt to understand this crisis, Wright looks at the years 1934-1968, a time in which new and significant forces impinged on the fishery. In examining the rise of the modern frozen fish sector, Wright offers insight into contemporary problems plaguing the fish industry.
