In The Edge of the Sea Rachel Carson introduces us to the 'strange
and beautiful place' where the sea meets the land. She explores a
tide pool, an inaccessible cave, and watches a lone crab on the
shore at midnight. From these, and other, encounters she offers us
not just a scientifically accurate study of the ecology of the
seashore, but also a hauntingly beautiful account of the fragile
balance of life found at the edge of the sea. The Edge of the Sea,
like all her writing, sounds a prophetic alarm for the damage
mankind is doing to the natural world, but also offers us
inspiration: here is beauty, here is something worth saving.
