    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The crucian is a freshwater fish species that has seen a renaissance of interest in angling and conservation communities in Britain. Despite its wide northern European and western Asian distribution, the species is under threat due to multiple causes including the decimation of the small pond habitats upon which it depends. As a small pond specialist, the crucian serves a particularly important role as a charismatic focus encouraging support for the protection and restoration of this highly threatened and much-reduced habitat type and the diversity of other species that it supports.

    Crucians (Carassius carassius): Biology, Ecology, Angling and Culture takes a comprehensive approach, covering:

    • Biology and ecology, including taxonomy
    • Angling, including location, baits, methods, and former and current record fish
    • Cultural connections, including etymology, artwork and culinary aspects of the fish

    These sections are supported by a bibliography and beautiful colour imagery. The book offers a fascinating read for conservationists, anglers, freshwater biologists and those with interest in the natural world.
