"This book is a study of a fishing community, Shingu, on the northern shores of Kyushu. From being a rather important centre which attracted a large number of merchants during the feudal period, Shingu today has changed into a suburb of Fukuoka City. Fishing is a slowly dying occupation and the author analyses how the fishermen try to adjust themsleves to this new situation." (Publisher's description).
