Ocean Treasure: Commericial Fishing in Alaska (Teacher Resources)

Ocean Treasure is a full-color book about the Alaska fishing industry. Author Terry Johnson provides an engaging and authoritative overview of the seafood industry, combined with color photos and drawings of fish and invertebrates and the gear used to harvest them. Ocean Treasure tells how to recognize fishing boats and gear, what the fish look like, and how good they taste. Visitors to Alaska whose curiosity is piqued by the fishing vessels and dock activity they see, as well as “armchair” Alaska tourists, will be rewarded by the information-packed pages presented in the easy-to read, friendly text of this book.
