Condizione: FINE. First printing. A lovely book about the Sacramento River Delta, a "hybrid of fascinating natural science and outrageous fish tales." (Jack Hicks) Award-winning California poet Gary Snyder commented "These stories are the kind of creative and scientific myth-making that gives a whole place life. A set of river-system fish-as-people tales for grown-ups, it's a rich mix. Geologic and oceanic lore becomes sturgeon oral histories; Sacramento Valley history blends with catalogs of river-rat bars and sexy fish spawning scenes. Finally the Sacramento River tells its own story. It can get along, it says, with everything but dams. And, it says, expect it to push over the levees every once in a while, sometimes it needs more room." Illustrated with black and white photographs and many full page watercolors, oils, and drawings by Marty Stanley. INSCRIBED by the author on the title page and dated in 1998, and SIGNED by the artist, Marty Stanley, underneath the frontispiece painting, and dated in 1998 .
