Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review“Look closely, dear people. Look with sympathy and fascination and awe. Look upon these majesties of marine life, read about them, learn something about them—and be grateful you were born on the blue planet. . . . The minds and the eyes of these two journeying women will take you places you haven’t been.” * David Quammen *
"
From the Seashore to the Seafloor . . . takes its readers on a watercolor illustrated journey between its title locations of the northeastern Pacific Ocean, blending into its narrative explanations of some of the creatures and systems to be found along the way with exhortations to conserve them." * The Well-read Naturalist *
"
From the Seashore to the Seafloor is a gem. . . Reflecting the scientific experiences of Dr. Voight, an expert in mollusks who has taken eight dives in the deep-sea
Alvin submersible, each chapter focuses on a different marine ecosystem. . . Almost every page is graced with Macnamara’s carefully observed and lively, brilliantly colorful illustrations. . .
From the Seashore to the Seafloor is a lovely and very informative work that would be welcome in any scientist’s or artist’s library." * American Biology Teacher *
