Coastal FIshes Of The Pacific Northwest by Andy Lamb

Come to Thetis Island in October and meet Andy

Written by a marine biologist and illustrated in colour by a prizewinning underwater photographer, Coastal Fishes of the Pacific Northwest is the only comprehensive field guide to marine fishes of British Columbia, Washington, and Southern Alaska. It is also a useful reference for marine fishes of Oregon and Northern California. "If you are a fisherman, a diver or a naturalist, this is the book for you. Entertainingly readable, the text succeeds in providing easy and accurate information which will neither raise objection from the professionals nor confuse the amateur. The photographs contribute to the educational value of the work because Phil Edgell. . . has worked extremely hard to find the fish in its natural setting so the viewer of the photograph becomes aware of the nature of the habitat."
