THE EDGE OF THE SEA

“Rachel Carson was first and foremost a writer of considerable literary style whose true love was the sea.”

—from the introduction by Sue Hubbell

While Rachel Carson is best known for Silent Spring, she had a deep passion for life in the ocean. In pellucid, knowledgeable prose, she transforms seemingly simple plants and animals at the sea’s edge into complex and stunningly beautiful creatures deserving of our compassion, understanding, and finally, protection.
