How does tourism transform fishing communities into vibrant resorts, working shores into bathing beaches? In A Shifting Shore , Alice Garner traces the ways fisherfolk, bathers, investors, and engineers understood, claimed, and remade the shores of the Bassin d'Arcachon, a prime fishing and oyster-farming site in southwestern France, over the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
