Item Description
Be the proud owner of a copy of this limited edition, large-format book from celebrated photographer Nubar Alexanian.
A New England native and Gloucester resident, Alexanian accompanied the Brancaleone family of Gloucester and their crew aboard the Joseph and Lucia II on four ten-day fishing trips to Georges Bank in the late ‘70’s and early ‘80’s, just prior to the collapse of the fishing industry. His photos from these trips form the heart of this book and reflect his deep connection to these Gloucester fishermen. They record the last glory days of commercial fishing out of Gloucester harbor, and also life as it was lived in Gloucester over a forty year period. In his introduction Sandy Tolan writes: "This book is a love poem to Gloucester; it is, as Nubar says, a 'historical document describing a way of life that will never 'be' again.’ "
A gorgeous book to display in your home.
