Under the currents. A hundred years of history of the Icelandic Fishing Association, 1911-2011. Compiled by Hjörtur Gíslason and Jón Hjaltason.
The Fishery Association was the driving force in the Icelandic fishing industry for decades. The Icelandic Industrial Revolution, the Icelandic Accident Prevention Association, the exploitation of redfish, the terrible saltwater fish yellowfin tuna, motor training, coast guard, fishing systems, training ships and responsible fishing, all of this is part of the history of the Fishery Association. A fundamental book on the quota system, its origins and development. LÍÚ and Kristján Ragnarsson were first against the quota but then for it. The people of the Westfjords were always against it. Why? A fundamental book on the Icelandic fishing industry in the 20th century. Numerous photographs shed bright light on the history. (Bókatíðindi 2011).
