Herring: A Love Story

But I did not have the historical details, the art and the artifacts that resulted in this fascinating book by Daniel Rozensztroch and Cathie Fidler. The New York Times A long childhood friendship of authors, Daniel Rozensztroch and Cathie Fidler was the beginning of Herring: A Love Story, which traces the history and iconography of the cherished herring.
