Summary |
"The guide begins with an overview of oceanography, from the creation of storms and swells, to why the water is blue. It then identifies the major groups of animals seen on the ocean surface, from bizarre sucker fish and flying fish, through to the glorious gliding sea-birds and the largest of all animals, the whales."--Cover |
