Dolphins

It is hard to believe this book was first published in 1974. Since that time our knowledge of these friendly sea mammals has increased quite markedly. As we re-visit this excellent series of books by the legendary Jacques Cousteau, however, we discover just how much he was ahead of his time. This man came to know more about the sea and it's creatures than any man ever did - and perhaps ever will, and this book is a shining example of that knowledge. Packed with page after page covering all aspects of Dolphin life and behaviour, this book is as relevant today as it ever was. There is much here for anyone with an interest in these attractive creatures and I would suggest "no scuba diver's bookshelf is complete without a copy - so get one now whilst these last remaining stocks are still available. As with all the books in this series, it is a good read. NM

This is part of the three volume set, ISBN 0884680175, by cousteau, his son and Philippe Diolé. The photography is supuerb with over 100 color prints, and numer back and white. The fascination stirred dophins makes this volume the most compelling of the three.
