Seashore

Each title in the "Eyewitness" series is an informative, visual guide to the wonders of the world around us. Illustrated with colour photographs of objects from the natural world, from specialist museums and from rare private collections, this series offers a fresh approach to the mysteries of nature, history, science, arts, crafts and pastimes. Underwater photography highlights this exploration of the world of the seashore, featuring photographs of shells, seaweeds, anemones and rock-pool fish. The accompanying text describes the creation of coastlines and the variety of plants, fish, crustaceans and birds that live here.
