 Under the Sea-Wind kept me thoroughly engaged in the lives of the animals above and below the sea as seen by the author, Rachel Carson. Sentence by sentence and page by page I was spell bound with the year spent along the east coast of North America. Awesome book I highly recommend it.

Customer Review:
 We love the earth, and what it provides for us, but we aren't into evolution. I actually threw the book out. I didn't appreciate the whole "Mother Earth" feel of this book. Should have done more research and saved my five dollars.
