They're In The River

A master chronicler of American life introduces us to the iconic and most curious American shad (a type of fish). John McPhee, himself a shad fisherman, recounts the fascinating life of this great American wayfarer, most famous for its Odyssean journey as it leaves the ocean in crowds of millions, running heroic distances up Americas rivers to spawn. They're in the River is part of a series of Picador Shorts "Oceans, Rivers, and Streams" and serves as a standalone book that is part of the series.
