Book Suggestions?

[EPaul]

Several years ago we had a thread about book suggestions for fishermen and conservationists like ourselves. I don't read alot, but I never pass up a good book about fishing or Louisiana history. I'm ready for a new book. Any suggestions?

Last time someone on here suggested "Plugger," the book about Texas fishing legend Rudy Grigar. I loved it and shared it with my fishing buddies who can read (that disqualifies a few of them). I also highly recommend "Bayou Farewell," which is about coastal erosion and the corresponding loss of our culture in coastal Louisiana. Another good book is "Rising Tide." It's about the great flood of 1927 and it's impact on the decision to levee off the Mississipi River. This decision, of course, has led to the tremendous coastal erosion problems that we have today.

Please share any books that would follow along these lines.
