Item Description
The Edge of the Sea
Author: Rachel Carson
Hardback book is first edition, first printing in original dust jacket
"The edge of the sea is a strange and beautiful place." A book to be read for pleasure as well as a practical identification guide, The Edge of the Sea introduces a world of teeming life where the sea meets the land. A new generation of readers is discovering why Rachel Carson's books have become cornerstones of the environmental and conservation movements.
The Edge of the Sea is a book by the American conservationist Rachel Carson, first published by Oxford University Press in 1955. It is counted the third book of her so-called sea trilogy.
The Edge of the Sea was made commercially possible by the smash success of its predecessor The Sea Around Us in 1951 and 1952. Carson had become a full-time writer and this third book may be called her first as a conservationist rather than a marine biologist.
