Kim Bartlett

The Finest Kind

The Fishermen of Gloucester

A portrait of the Gloucester fishermen—made famous by The Perfect Storm—that takes you deep inside their world.

This powerful work brings the reader along with the fishermen as they plow the treacherous sea in search of the elusive and dwindling schools of fish. Kim Bartlett lets us hear the men speak and puts us right on the boat with them. 14 b/w photographs.

"This book is alive with people who live and work in a way most of us have never experienced."—New York Times Book Review
