Back when it was called New Amsterdam, and the waterways all around the island were flush with bluefish, mackerel, shad, striped bass, alwives, and sturgeon.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe tells the story of how commercial fishing first humbly began with early colonists trading local fish with local indigenous tribes, and how the American spirit of determination, entrepreneurship, and capitalization grew the industry into a booming shipbuilding and merchant trade. At the center of it all stands The Fulton Fish Market. Brought to life in the early 19th century, it was founded at New York City’s South Street Seaport in 1822, and quickly became the heartbeat of lower Manhattan. Today, it's the second-largest fish market in the world and continues to be the biggest supplier of wholesale fish in the United States. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTucked in with all this maritime and market history is this comprehensive cookbook on the subject of all things fish. How to shop for it, clean it, prepare it, cook it, and serve it. How to determine which types of fish are most appropriate for which cooking methods, how to safely handle it, how to store it, and what to do with leftovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderstanding that fish can be intimidating for some cooks, Bruce guides readers through the ins and outs in a lively, conversational voice packed so full of interesting and helpful information that it will instill confidence in even the most wary of cooks.
