About this book
Dr. G. Hartwig, who also wrote The Tropical World and The Polar World, offers this popular account of the marvels of the deep and of maritime discovery. The seventh edition appeared in London in 1892 with many woodcuts and plates.
Part I treats the physical geography of the sea: how large it is, how deep, and the waves and tides. Later parts, according to the preface, cover molluscs, jelly-fishes, fishes, crustaceans, microscopic animals and the phosphorescence of the sea. The author added chapters on marine constructions and marine caves for the third and fourth editions.
