Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the historic decline and eventual extinction of salmon in the River Thames and its tributaries. The author, a seasoned observer of the river's wildlife, consulted historical records and anecdotal evidence to demonstrate the link between increasing population and ind…ustrial activity with the disappearance of this iconic fish. The book places the Thames within the broader context of English history and law, highlighting medieval legislation aimed at protecting salmon populations. It discusses the impact of weirs, mills, pollution, and overfishing on the river's delicate ecosystem. The author argues that the decline of salmon in the Thames mirrors the broader environmental degradation caused by unchecked industrialization and urbanization. By understanding the historical factors that led to the loss of this valuable species, we can gain insights into the importance of conservation and sustainable practices for the preservation of our natural heritage. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
