Watery Realm

Here is an enjoyable read and an ideal gift for your water-oriented friends. It's a series of essays about the ways in which bodies of water--lakes, rivers, and seas--inspire and ignite curiosity for those who venture onto, into, or near them. The Watery Realm will no doubt initiate a most pleasurable response in the reader. Boat fanatics, beach bums, sailors, naturalists, linguists, surfers, and especially readers of maritime lore and literature will all be reminded of the many possibilities of the world of sea and shore, tall ship and kayak, lake and stream, shell and shark.
