The old man and the sea: a field study of change in the Greek fishing industry based on interviews with fishermen on the Island of Santorini
by Sandra Pennewiss
International Journal of Entrepreneurship and Small Business (IJESB), Vol. 1, No. 1/2, 2004

Abstract: When Hemingway wrote his probably most famous short story, he chose the character of an elderly fisherman for lyrical reasons. This account is written about the elderly, traditional fishermen because there are no young ones left to take over the way of their fathers. Fishing in Greece, like so many other traditional occupations, is undergoing a transition, as the young generation is ambitious and venturing into more lucrative or prestigious occupations.
