Abstract
“THE methods employed in the capture and transport of fish, the great combinations of capital, the trade organisations, the disputes between the trade and the railway companies, local upheavals, like those of Newlyn and Grimsby, which temporarily paralysed the industry, the efforts of science to unveil the secrets of the sea, and of Parliament first to encourage such investigation and then to act upon its results; these have in turn been briefly dealt with. Lastly, we visited most of the important fishing ports.” Such in the author's words is an outline of the plan of this book.
