     Much of this book is anecdotal, a retelling of the author's personal fishing stories, and of other                     fishers  who, in the 9170s "slipped off the sands of Cannon Beach" in 20-foot long dories
     seeking salmon, coho, cod, rockfish, and crabs. Also included is a brief history of dory fishing,
     a dory glossary, a list of captains and their boats, and numerous photos.

     About the Author
    Peter Lindsey arrived in Cannon Beach in the early 1950s. As a folklorist, his interest lies in the
    study of stories, folktales, and other knowledge passed from generation to generation in oral
    tradition. Dory construction, trolling techniques, gear, and fishing wisdom have long been
    passed down by example and word of mouth.
