Reader's note

This attractive vintage book is a 1952 edition of Under the Sea-Wind by Rachel L. Carson. In her evocative prose, she records the skirmishes and the battles that are fought along the shore, in the endless sky above and the endless sea below. Here is the story of the fierce-eyed jaeger, scourge of all the tundra; of the great Armadas of golden plover beating their way over northern seas to the warmth of South America; of the ancient, mysterious migration that takes the eels from the rivers to the coastal waters, thence to the great abyss of their forebears, there to spawn and then to die. There are beautiful illustrations throughout buy C.F. Tunnicliffe makes this book a marvel!
