I'll second this. Peter Matthiessen is a highly gifted writer (both fiction and nonfiction) and "Men's Lives" is an amazing account of the LI haul seining industry as it was squeezed away by "conservation/sport fishing" concerns. Easily the best book involving striped bass ever written (though not a "fishing book") and, if you think the fish pictures on this site are impressive, you should see the ones in this book.
