520 |a "Any fisherman who has felt the wily strength of a striped bass at the end of the line knows it to be an extraordinary fish. Reaching up to five feet long and one hundred pounds, this famously wise, graceful, and tasty creature has long been an emotional favorite of anglers and a staple of the American dinner table. There are countless striper tales - including how the fish helped Plymouth's Pilgrims survive their first winter - but none as remarkable as the ongoing story of threat and survival that began in the 1980s with a landmark conservation campaign." "Author and fisherman Dick Russell stands at the center of this American fish story. When decades of overfishing by commercial interests sent striper populations into free fall, Russell emerged as a key spokesman in a long-shot crusade by dedicated fishermen to save them. In one of nature's great comebacks, groundbreaking moratoriums allowed the population to rebound more than tenfold in the years from 1982 to 2002." "Striper Wars is Russell's account of that thrilling, yet tenuous victory, replete with heroes and villains. The characters emerge in full color, from a fishing-tackle maker who fought alongside marine biologists to a canny commercial fisherman who repeatedly sought to thwart tough regulations and a renowned state governor tempted by special interests. The plot is no less gripping, as Russell shows how the striper's champions blocked power plants and New York's Westway Project to conserve vital habitat." "The story should end there, but the striper's reprieve may prove fleeting. In recent years, a bacterial disease has struck seventy percent of stripers in the primary spawning waters of the Chesapeake Bay. Malnutrition is a major factor, with overfishing devastating the menhaden on which striped bass feed. And in California, where until recently stripers have thrived, agribusiness now threatens the fish's future. While perils loom large, Dick Russell's account offers fundamental lessons about 
520 |a The power of civic action and the necessity of a holistic approach to conservation. With constant vigilance, future anglers will continue to spin tales about the first, but never the last, striper they hook."--Jacket
