This is to announce a re-issue of the beautiful book, originally
published in 1941, of an expedition made to the Gulf of California
by Ed Ricketts, a biologist, and the novelist. Ricketts died three
years ago and this edition carries a recently written profile
tribute by Steinbeck. (Kirkus Reviews)
In 1940 Steinbeck sailed in a sardine boat with his great friend the marine biologist, Ed Ricketts, to collect marine invertebrates from the beaches of the Gulf of California.
The expedition was described by the two men in SEA OF CORTEZ, published in 1941. The day-to-day story of the trip is told here in the Log, which combines science, philosophy and high-spirited adventue.
An exhilarating and highly entertaining read.
