Fishes of Maine

Fishes of Maine is a classic mid‑20th‑century regional reference documenting the freshwater and anadromous fish species of Maine. Written by noted ichthyologist W. Harry Everhart, this publication reflects an era when state fish and game departments produced practical, science‑based guides for anglers, students, and conservationists. Combining species descriptions, distribution information, and biological notes, the book offers historical insight into fisheries knowledge and management practices of the time and remains of interest to collectors of early natural history and regional angling literature.
