| Beneath the North Atlantic by Jonathan Bird |
|
This book explores the marine life of the
Atlantic coast of America in excellent color photographs and text. The book is a
coffee-table introduction to the cold Atlantic waters rather than a comprehensive
identification guide and academic text. However, there are lots of interesting snippets of
information, including the introductory page on Latin and Greek names, with some notes on
pronunciation. It is an attractive addition to
general collections, especially those serving young people contemplating careers in marine
biology.
