"Fisherman on the High Rhine: on the history of the fishery between Saeckingen and Basel. The Hochrhein ("the High Rhein") is the stretch of river lying between Lake Constance and Basel. The area lies partly in Switzerland and partly in Germany. This is a detailed examination of the commercial fishery carried on between Saeckingen and Hueningen, its historical origins, its development commercially and legally, methods used, and the guilds and companies which controlled it. The devastating effect of modern industry on the fishery is discussed, as is its recent recovery and the parallel rise to importance of angling.
