About this book
The sea and the animals living in it are described for general readers, with as little technical vocabulary as the subject allows. Louis Figuier, a French writer on science, is the author, and Charles O. Groom-Napier revised and enlarged the chapters on shells for this London edition, which carries 427 illustrations. The preface sketches the ocean in calm and in storm, and quotes a naturalist's picture of coral thickets, sea-fans and brightly coloured fish in the Indian Ocean.
