This book takes a thorough look into the salmon industry of the early 1900s, going into great detail about the physical and chemical properties of salmon, as well as changes in decomposition and the canning process. The author was a specialist in sea life, particularly salmon, working as a chemist for the U.S. Bureau of Fisheries, so he was able to present detailed scientific information about salmon, and explain phenomena such as spoilage in detail. The book goes into great detail not only about the objective canning process but also about subjective experiences in the food, discussing the meanings and causes of observations such as odor, color, and texture, which had been previously undocumented. The book's insights into the nature of salmon and the decomposition process remain foundational in the field, and it is still used as a resource for understanding the science behind the fishing industry.
