Summary:
"In 'The
Sea
is Not
Made
of
Water
,' Adam Nicolson (a columnist for The Sunday Telegraph and a prizewinning author of several books on landscape and place, on birds, and on great literature and history) explores the natural wonders of the intertidal and our long human relationship with it. The physics of the seas, the biology of anemone and limpet, the long history of the earth, and the stories we tell of those who have lived here: all interconnect in this zone where the philosopher, scientist and poet can meet and find meaning. In this blend of fascinating, surprising ecology and luminous human history, Adam Nicolson gives an invitation to the shoreline. Anyone who chooses can look beyond their own reflection and find the marvellous there, waiting an inch beneath their nose."--From publisher.
