Description
'Carlson's first-person narrative about the sportfishing trade and its relationship with the commercial fishing operations at Hatteras Island focuses closely on a relatively small group of people in the village whom we get to know quite well and, in the process, come to care for and admire. All sorts of folks will be drawn to this book, some for its close-in look at fishing, others for its fond, vivid portraiture of the last of the real salts.'' Bland Simpson, author of Ghost Ship of Diamond Shoals: The Mystery of the Carroll A. Deering ''This book is filled with stories and history and the poignant flavor of a vanishing way of life. Tom Carlson couldn't have picked a better subject to introduce his readers to the real Outer Banks.'' Jan DeBlieu, author of Wind: How the Flow of Air Has Shaped Life, Myth, and the Land ''If you enjoy reading about the sea and the men who work on it, Hatteras Blues will be a delight.''David DiBenedetto, editor of Salt Water Sportsman and author of On the Run: An Angler's Journey down the Striper Coast
