Tracing the history of rainbow trout from the nineteenth century to the present day, Center of the American West Research Faculty member Anders Halverson explores the origins, the costs, and the benefits of fish stocking and other freshwater fishery management techniques. In the process, the story he tells about this favorite target of American sport fishers illuminates the complex ties between human actions and what we commonly call “nature.”
