Book Description

"If we mean to change our ways, how will we do it? How will we make our food and our system of food production healthy, sustainable, and secure? How will we make them, in a word, sane? Who will do this work?" Ray Huling knows the hard realities of shell fishing. His father and grandfathers were shell-fishermen on Rhode Island's Narragansett Bay, laborers in an age-old trade. As a third generation quahauger, the industry is his life, and the drive to keep it sustainable is what makes up his family history. In "Bullrakers," Huling answers these pressing questions and delivers a moving portrait of the men and women who work the waters of the Atlantic coast in the harsh environment of the shellfishing industry. Huling argues that any successful sustainable food enterprise will likely resemble shell fishing in Rhode Island, an industry which has existed sustainably for over 150 years, with its complex system of governance, its fierce and obsessive workforce, and its conflicts within communities and between generations. This thought provoking book sets the complexities of sustainable food production against a heartwarming story of one family's enduring years of work on the seas.

This audiobook was neither good nor bad - simply average. The narrator's delivery was professional but uninspired, and the recording quality was clean though not exceptional. It provided satisfactory entertainment without standing out from similar titles.

My kids are hooked on the children's audiobook collection – it's a parenting win! ListenBook's commitment to excellence shines through in its powerful features and seamless performance. This app has made waiting in lines and queues an opportunity for exploration and enjoyment. Navigating my audiobook library is a breeze – thank you, app developers! I don't have strong feelings about this one either way. The narration was competent but forgettable. The story itself was more engaging than the performance.
