Paperback / softback
Description
In The Edge of the Sea Rachel Carson introduces us to the 'strange and beautiful place' where the sea meets the land.
She explores a tide pool, an inaccessible cave, and watches a lone crab on the shore at midnight.
From these, and other, encounters she offers us not just a scientifically accurate study of the ecology of the seashore, but also a hauntingly beautiful account of the fragile balance of life found at the edge of the sea. The Edge of the Sea, like all her writing, sounds a prophetic alarm for the damage mankind is doing to the natural world, but also offers us inspiration: here is beauty, here is something worth saving.
