A guide to identification of marine plant and animal life along 88,600 miles of tidal shoreline of the United States. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Found this at the library and I had to order my own copy. Living by the beach this is great for the kids and I to look through and get information on the things we see each time we go.
For the young reader, a great series

The Golden guides are classics, sometimes dated in both name and nominclature, but for a kid just getting started they can't be beat. They are small for small hands, have general but limited information and decent color drawings. You know a book is well received when it has continued to be printed for well over half a century!I teach in a College and was surprised to see that they are still the book of choice for some Biology students who also grew up with them. The only reason I don't give them 4 stars is the fact that much of the info is awfully dated.
