Harkness, W.J.K. And J.R. Dymond THE LAKE STURGEON: The History of Its Fishery and Problems of Conservation
Ontario Department of Lands and Forests 1961 First Edition Soft Card Wraps Good PLUS
Soft card wraps, GOOD PLUS, some browning to extremities, 121 pp.The accumulation of information for this account of the Lake Sturgeon began in 1922 when Dr. W.J.K. Harkness, then a recent graduate in biology of the University of Toronto, undertook a study of the sturgeon in Lake Nipigon. At that time, Lake Nipigon had an almost virgin population of sturgeon since commercial fishing had only begun on the lake in 1917. Field studies on Lake Nipigon continued during the summers of 1922 to 1926, with some observations on Lake Nipissing in 1926 and 1929 to 1935, and on Lake Erie during the summers of 1941 and 1942. Dr. J.R. Dymond's contribution has been in extracting additional information from published accounts of the sturgeon and in organizing it in the present form. The work of organization and editing had been almost completed in co-operation with Dr. Harkness before his death on July 5th, 1960. (Fort Erie Public Library stamp present) extensively illustrated. Includes History of Artificial Sturgeon culture in the United States.
