Eventually Billy came to realize that his beloved fish were vanishingsome to near extinctionand he understood that it was time to take action.Originally published in 1998 and now a Canadian bestseller, Billy's stories convey his profound respect and admiration for the lands and waters that he has spent his lifetime working on and fighting for.Stories are what you need to hearstories about people who have spent a lifetime living and working with nature.
