Human dependence on herring has evolved for millennia through interactions with key spawning areas--but humans have also significantly impacted the species' distribution and abundance. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombining ethnological, historical, archaeological, and political perspectives with comparative reference to other North Pacific cultures, \u003ci\u003eHerring and People of the North Pacific\u003c\/i\u003e traces fishery development in Southeast Alaska from precontact Indigenous relationships with herring to postcontact focus on herring products. Revealing new findings about current herring stocks as well as the fish's significance to the conservation of intraspecies biodiversity, the book explores the role of traditional local knowledge, in combination with archeological, historical, and biological data, in both understanding marine ecology and restoring herring to their former abundance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-13441606\"\u003eThomas F.
