This new Second Edition features state-of-the-art "stochastic" (random dot) imaging and printing technology to bring dramitic clarity and detail to its digitially restored photography. The photos in this book illustrate the evolution of Monterey history, the fishing and canning industries, the processes and working conditions in Monterey's world famous sardine trade. They also show in accurate detail the actual locations used by John Steinbeck in his Cannery Row fiction. The book contains a detailed, indexed historical map to the Row's canneries and literary sites, a full text index, a research bibiolgraphy, recommended website resources, and a special family album of marine biologist, Edward F. Ricketts.
