Few Southern Californians realize that over 110 fishing barges dotted our coastline from San Diego to Santa Barbara and beyond for three quarters of a century.  Many of these barges sank and are now popular wreck sites, including the Star of Scotland, Georgia, Melrose, Olympic II, Elsie I, Ace One, Gratia, Lazy Daze and Sacramento.  The story of each barge, its previous trades under sail and steam, the barge industry, and the fishing of yesteryear are captured in Fishing Barges of California 1921-1998. 

Fishing Barges of California 1921-1998 by Ed Ries is 104 pages with over 260 illustrations and archival photographs. New $14.95
