Summary

Nowhere in the world can you get closer to wildlife than you can in the ocean. A Year Underwater takes you there, within inches of squadrons of squid, seven-foot sharks, 20-pound lobsters, and myriad creatures living in minuscule worlds almost too small to see. Between New Year's Day and New Year's Eve of 2015, author Jerry Shine dove up and down the East Coast of North America, through winter storms and summer heat waves. A Year Underwater is his record of that year, of creatures mating, spawning, hiding and making meals of one another, all within a stone's throw of the beach. This is a book for anyone who loves the feel of the ocean, or who's ever looked at it and wondered what was happening beneath its surface
