A wonderful book of photographs of mussels in human settings, with captions.
The Menemsha Mussels arrived on the shores of Menemsha Bight on the island of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, long after the end of the last Ice Age, but several thousand years prior to the first human habitation.
Their culture has evolved in a manner remarkably similar to our own, and much insight into our own present condition can be gleaned from viewing these photos of the Menemsha Mussels at work and at play.
Any resemblance to human persons or situations is purely intentional.-David Durst, Curator and Maitre d'Mussels. Many pages of photos. This book is so funny.
