Flatheads & Spooneys Fishing for a Living in the Ohio River Valley

Today's community of fisherfolk is small and economically marginal, but their activities sustain a complex of traditional skills and a body of verbal folklore associated with river life. In Flatheads and Spooneys, Jens Lund describes the activities, boats, gear, verbal lore, and sense of identity of the fisherfolk of the lower Ohio River Valley and provides historical and ethnobiological background for their way of life.Lund, Jens is the author of 'Flatheads & Spooneys Fishing for a Living in the Ohio River Valley' with ISBN 9780813119274 and ISBN 0813119278.
