Salar the Salmon is a 1935 novel by the English writer Henry Williamson. It follows a five-year-old salmon during his spring run, as he enters the Bristol Channel and ends up in Exmoor. "Kirkus Reviews" wrote: "There is no humanizing of the salmon, no fantasy element, but simply a dramatic story of what one feels actually happens from the time a salmon deserts his Atlantic feeding grounds for the inland waterways." Peter Coates, in his book "Salmon" (2006), called it "the finest salmon novel in English".
