| Description: | Select Guide Rating The breathtaking first volume in Rachel Carson's classic and New York Times bestselling trilogy, about the history of the oceans, introduced by Margaret Atwood The Sea Around Us is one of the most influential books ever written about the natural world. In it Rachel Carson tells the history of our oceans, combining scientific insight and poetic prose as only she can, to take us from the creation of the oceans, through their role in shaping life on Earth, to what the future holds. It was prophetic at the time it was written, alerting the world to a crisis in the climate, and it speaks to the fragility and centrality of the oceans and the life that abounds within them. |
