Very minimal edge wear, soft corners, tight binding, teeny tiny white spot on cover. 384 illustrations, 167 in full

"When this book was first published in 1928 the original intention was to outline general principles and, with suitable examples, to present an overall sketch of our knowledge of life in the sea. Until the end of the second World War advance in knowledge was relatively slow and, apart from the chapter on coral reefs, little change was made in the second edition of 1936. After the war, however, there was a
great expansion in marine science, and advance in knowledge has been rapid and considerable." |
