Download or read book The Fulton Fish Market written by Jonathan H. Rees and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fulton Fish Market stands out as an iconic New York institution. At first a neighborhood retail market for many different kinds of food, it became the nation’s largest fish and seafood wholesaling center by the late nineteenth century. Waves of immigrants worked at the Fulton Fish Market and then introduced the rest of the city to their seafood traditions. In popular culture, the market—celebrated by Joseph Mitchell in The New Yorker—conjures up images of the bustling East River waterfront, late-night fishmongering, organized crime, and a vanished working-class New York. This book is a lively and comprehensive history of the Fulton Fish Market, from its founding in 1822 through its move to the Bronx in 2005. Jonathan H. Rees explores the market’s workings and significance, tracing the transportation, retailing, and consumption of fish. He tells the stories of the people and institutions that depended on the Fulton Fish Market—including fishermen, retail stores, restaurants, and chefs—and shows how the market affected what customers in New York and around the country ate. Rees examines transformations in food provisioning systems through the lens of a vital distribution point, arguing that the market’s wholesale dealers were innovative businessmen who adapted to technological change in a dynamic industry. He also explains how changes in the urban landscape and economy affected the history of the market and the surrounding neighborhood. Bringing together economic, technological, urban, culinary, and environmental history, this book demonstrates how the Fulton Fish Market shaped American cuisine, commerce, and culture.

This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the United States Fish Commission, 1884, Vol. 4 For several years a careful inspection of the marine products brought into the District of Columbia has been made under the direction of the health officer of the District. Five years ago an arrangement was perfected by Prof. S. F. Baird, Commissioner of Fisheries, with Hon. Smith Townshend, M. D., health officer, whereby the daily receipts of fresh fish, oysters, &c., should be tabulated and transmitted in monthly tables to the Fish Commission. These monthly tables have all been footed and transferred to yearly tables in this office. I am able herewith to present annual tables for 1879, 1880, 1881, 1882, and 1883 (Tables I, II, III, IV, V). The yield of shad and herring may be supposed to have been influenced somewhat by the artificial propagation under the direction of the United States Fish Commission, which has been carried on at the Potomac for a number of years. The run of shad and herring is also affected by the temperature, which varies somewhat for the same date in different years. This is presented in Tables VII to X, inclusive.

This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the United States Fish Commission, for 1900, Vol. 20: First Part The expedition of the United States Fish Commission steamer Fish Hawaii: to Porto Rico in the winter of 1898 - 99 had for its primary object a general study of the aquatic resources of that island. The fishes and fisheries naturally received most attention, but every opportunity was embraced to make extensive collections in all other groups of aquatic animals. A considerable collection of algae was also made. As stated in the preface to this Bulletin, these collections were assigned, for study and report, to specialists in the various groups. Seventeen reports have been received from those who kindly undertook the critical study of the collections assigned them. These reports were each first published as separate pamphlets, and all are now brought together in the two volumes constituting the Bulletin of the Fish Commis sion for 1900. Owing to conditions lying without the control of the Commission, no reports have been received from the specialists to whom the few remaining groups were assigned.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the United States Fish Commission, Vol. 2 No one will deny that this is a grand idea, and the only question was for Mr. Von dem Borne to furnish the proof of its practicability. Mr. Von dem Borne has done this in the presence of a specially invited com pany of representatives of the authorities most interested in this matter, by laying his plan before them on the occasion of large pond-carp fish eries near his estate of Berneuchen. The result was such as to remove all doubt from the minds of those present as to the feasibility of Mr. Von dem Borne's plan for increasing the productiveness of large sheets of fresh water. It may therefore interest our readers if we lay before them an outline of this plan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Passion for Birds written by Mark Barrow and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2000-02-27 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the decades following the Civil War--as industrialization, urbanization, and economic expansion increasingly reshaped the landscape--many Americans began seeking adventure and aesthetic gratification through avian pursuits. By the turn of the century, hundreds of thousands of middle-and upper-class devotees were rushing to join Audubon societies, purchase field guides, and keep records of the species they encountered in the wild. Mark Barrow vividly reconstructs this story not only through the experiences of birdwatchers, collectors, conservationists, and taxidermists, but also through those of a relatively new breed of bird enthusiast: the technically oriented ornithologist. In exploring how ornithologists struggled to forge a discipline and profession amidst an explosion of popular interest in natural history, A Passion for Birds provides the first book-length history of American ornithology from the death of John James Audubon to the Second World War. Barrow shows how efforts to form a scientific community distinct from popular birders met with only partial success. The founding of the American Ornithologists' Union in 1883 and the subsequent expansion of formal educational and employment opportunities in ornithology marked important milestones in this campaign. Yet by the middle of the twentieth century, when ornithology had finally achieved the status of a modern profession, its practitioners remained dependent on the services of birdwatchers and other amateur enthusiasts. Environmental issues also loom large in Barrow's account as he traces areas of both cooperation and conflict between ornithologists and wildlife conservationists. Recounting a colorful story based on the interactions among a wide variety of bird-lovers, this book will interest historians of science, environmental historians, ornithologists, birdwatchers, and anyone curious about the historical roots of today's birding boom.
