Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Pioneering environmentalist Rachel Carson explores the wonders of the Earth's oceans in these classics of American science and nature writing.Rachel Carson is perhaps most famous as the author of Silent Spring, but she was first and foremost a 'poet of the sea' and the three books collected in this deluxe Library of America volume are classics of American science and nature writing.Under the Sea-Wind (1941), Carson's lyrical debut, offers an intimate account of maritime ecology through the eyes of three of the ocean's denizens, the individual lives of sanderling, mackerel, and eel dramatically intertwined in the enduring ebb and flow of the tides.The Sea Around Us (1951)-a winner of the National Book Award-draws on a wealth of oceanographic, meteorological, biological, and historical research to present its subject on a grand, biospheric scale, revealing not only many mysteries of the still-unfathomed depths, but a reverence for the sea as a source of global climate and of life itself.Concluding Carson's 'sea trilogy,' The Edge of the Sea (1955) explores the habits of the many small creatures that live on shorelines and in tidepools accessible to any beachcomber: part identification guide, part hymn to ecological complexity, it is a book that conveys the 'sense of wonder' in nature for which Carson is justly celebrated.At a moment when overfishing, pollution, and global warming are causing catastrophic changes to marine environments worldwide, Carson's lyrically detailed accounts of these environments offer a timely reminder of their beauty, fragility, and immense consequence for human life.Series Overview: This volume, #352 in the Library of America series, is a companion to Rachel Carson: Silent Spring & Other Writings on the Environment, volume #307.

Erstausgabe
First edition, first printing, of the third and most scientific of the conservationist's sea trilogy. All three books were best-sellers and established Carson's reputation as a prominent naturalist prior to the publication of Silent Spring (1962), the work that ignited the popular environmental movement. Written for the non-specialist, her sea books combine a deep appreciation of the natural world with beautiful, measured prose. This work follows Under the Sea-Wind (1941) and The Sea Around Us (1951). Carson's esteem for the sea is communicated in the opening paragraph: "The edge of the sea is a strange and beautiful place. All through the long history of Earth it has been an area of unrest where waves have broken heavily against the land, where the tides have pressed forward over the continents, receded, and then returned. For no two days is the shore line precisely the same. Today a little more land may belong to the sea, tomorrow a little less. Always the edge of the sea remains an elusive and indefinable boundary". The illustrator Bob Hines (1912-1994) was an American wildlife artist who illustrated numerous works for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, where Carson was the chief editor of publications. "Hines became the vehicle through which millions of citizens learned about their natural history" (Juriga). John D. Juriga, "The History Makers: Bob Hines", American Museum of Flyfishing, accessible online. Octavo. Original green cloth, spine lettered in dark green with starfish and mollusc motifs, crab motif blocked in dark green to front board, patterned endpapers. With dust jacket. Illustrations throughout. Bookseller's ticket of Lauriat's, Boston and Chestnut Hill, to half-title. Gentle bruising to spine ends and corners, contents clean; a handful of nicks, creases, and short closed tears to jacket extremities, light toning to flaps, a couple of marks and faint scratches to panels, unclipped: a near-fine copy in very good jacket.
