Fishes of the Pacific Coast

"These attractive, pocket-sized guides for fish watchers have been carefully written by Goodson and profusely illustrated in striking water colors by Phillip Weisgerber. Although designed for divers, fishers, aquarists and other nonprofessionals, these little books will undoubtedly find their way on to the shelves of many ichthyologists who will value them as quick references and for providing life-like, color renditions of many fish species found in American coastal waters." - Copeia "Goodson's guidebook is designed for the fishwatcher - whether skin or scuba diver, fisherman, aquarist, schoolchild or casual tourist exploring the shore - who seeks to know more about our marine life." - Palos Verdes Peninsula News "This is a very detailed guide if you are into fish watching. 507 fish are illustrated wonderfully in full color." - California Diving News "An excellent guide, splendidly illustrated, to all known species of fish along the Pacific Coast - from Alaska to Peru, and including the Gulf of California and the Galapagos Islands. Intended as a guidebook for snorkelers, divers, aquarists as well as fishermen." - Los Angeles Times "Goodman provides a handsome guide to fishes of the eastern Pacific, from Alaska to Peru including full-color illustrations of 507 species (many in color for the first time). This guide is designed for fishwatchers, skin and SCUBA divers, anglers, aquarists, students, and tourists." - Underwater Naturalist
