Reviews

I highly recommend the book to those interested in  salmonids, for zoologists involved with the specialized areas of the  book, and for libraries. It delivers a sound message - to save the  huchen - and serves a valuable function in bringing together the  extensive literature of this species of superlatives.   Copeia, 2, 1991
