A trip down the Yukon River with historian Bathsheba Demuth

Bathsheba Demuth is an environmental historian. Her book Floating Coast explored the Bering Strait region from both the Alaska and Russian sides. Now, she's writing a book about the Yukon River, and recently co-wrote a piece for Northern Journal about salmon declines and how fishing — and fishing restrictions — are managed by the U.S. and Canadian governments. She joins the Northern Journal podcast to talk about her research and her summer reporting from the river last year.
