Horseshoe crabs, those mysterious ancient mariners, lured me into
the sea as a child along the beaches of New Jersey. Drawn to their
shiny domed shells and spiked tails, I could not resist picking
them up, turning them over and watching the wondrous mechanical
movement of their glistening legs, articulating with one another as
smoothly as the inner working of a clock. What was it like to be a
horseshoe crab, I wondered? What did they eat? Did they always move
around together? Why were some so large and others much smaller?
How old were they, anyway? What must it feel like to live
underwater? What else was out there, down there, in the cool, green
depths that gave rise to such intriguing creatures? The only way to
find out, I reasoned, would be to go into the ocean and see for
myself, and so I did, and more than 60 years later, I still do.
