Swimming Against the Tide
Gray & Charleston
Swimming Against the Tide is a story of salmon conservation success against all odds. It details the pioneering hatchery work of Peter Gray at Kielder and his great achievements in dramatically improving the stocks of salmon on the Tyne - to the extent that it is now, once again, a world class salmon river.
‘My main motive is to offer hope to the host of people on both sides of the North Atlantic who desperately want to restore the fortunes of their depleted salmon rivers. Those who have seen the way the Tyne came back from the dead already want to follow its example but there are many others who should be told how it was done.’
Peter Gray
‘ . . . a book epitomising the conflicts in Britain's countryside . . . This book delves deep into fish detail, but it should be read. The revelations are as fascinating as the politics are depressing.’ - Country Life
