Book Description In Lament for an Ocean Michael Harris investigates the real causes of the most wanton destruction of a natural resource in North American history since the buffalo were wiped off the prairies. ...Lament for an Ocean is a riveting and stylish expose The Boston Globe, After reading this book, you wouldn’t trust the Department of Fisheries and Oceans with your aquarium.” –Elizabeth May, Executive Director, Sierra Club of Canada “Lament for an Ocean by Michael Harris isn’t the first book about the collapse of Canada’s East Coast fishery. It won’t be the last. But it is the one you must read to understand how this tragic – and tragically unnecessary – political, social, environmental, and ecological disaster actually happened.” – Daily News (Halifax)
