Summary

This text and CD collection chronicles the 131-year history of the American Fisheries Society (AFS) while tracing the changes in the social and geographical history of North America. The historical photo essay and CD-ROM provide a visual and audio exploration that allows the reader and viewer to reflect on the Society’s past challenges, successes, and failures; to look honestly at the present; and to renew a vision for the future. This ambitious project, detailing the history of AFS, encompasses the development and progress in North America of fish culture, fishery research, fishery management, and conservation from the earliest years of the Society to the present. The information is presented in a narrative format with details of source material (interviews, photographs, printed materials) provided.
