LOBSTERMAN

By

Publisher: Knopf

A step by step description of how Larry prepares for his first lobster trapping excursion and the events of the trip itself. This is the first year Larry is allowed to make his own trap and paint his in his own colors. Aboard the Lucille, father and son excitedly pass the channel markings, see groups of ciamdiggers and approach the sardine carrier from which they purchase bait. How the traps are carefully set, the catch hauled in and transferred to the lobster car on shore winds up an exciting day for Larry and completes a picture of the Lobsterman's activities for the render.
