This compact guide will help students to understand—and enjoy—the unique zone where land and ocean meet. It is a guide to seashells, sea plants, shore birds, jellyfish, starfish, sand crabs and other features of our coasts. With over 475 marine subjects illustrated in full color, this guide not only aids in identification but also gives an overall picture of life at the shore.

Using clear text and detailed illustrations, Golden Guides from St. Martin's Press present accurate information in a handy format for the beginner to the expert. These guides focus on what your students are really going to see. They are easy to use: detailed, full-color illustrations, text, and maps are all in one place. They are easy to understand: accurate, accessible information is simplified without being misrepresented. They are authoritative, containing up-to-date information written experts and checked by specialists. And they are portable: handy and lightweight, designed to fit in a pocket and be carried anywhere.
