Sultana Downrigging 2024

In this informal talk organized by Chestertown's own Book Plate, author and naturalist Edward O. Murdy will discuss his indispensable, "Field Guide to Fishes in the Chesapeake Bay," - the only comprehensive published guide of its type.  Murdy will recount what it takes to create a book that catalogues every fish in the Chesapeake Bay from the fresh-water tributaries in the north to the point where the estuary meets the salty waters of the Atlantic. This is a phenomenal book that has long been a go-to resource for the Sultana Education Foundation's teaching staff.
