Download or read book Shark written by Richard Ellis and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012-04-17 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The sharks, ancient or modern, real or imaginary, have always been with us, and will probably remain with us forever. They appear not only in movies and literature, but in countless permutations of size, shape, and materials, permeating our daily lives with their silent menace. In a sense, humans live in a world replete with sharks, not vice-versa.” Thus Richard Ellis sets about chronicling and debunking the myths of sharks throughout history. From 18th century art to the phenomena of JAWS, “the shark” has remained the indomitable aggressor of the deep, the last demon of humankind. The image of the shark and the fear it inspires infiltrates our daily lives with its mythical power and strength. But it is not man who should fear the shark. Our need to dominate these predators is destroying them and their habitat. Through hundreds of full-color images Ellis proves the necessity of preserving these majestic creatures. As curator of the Ft. Lauderdale Museum of Art’s exhibition entitled “Shark”, debuting May 2012, Ellis adeptly turns these sleek, efficient hunters from monsters of the deep into rare, beautiful forces of nature.

In the past 15 years, reports of shark attacks have substantially increased... Over half the attacks occur in water no deeper than five feet...

These unspeakably bloody encounters happen in shallow water, in "safe" areas, to people just like you-- people who thought it could never happen to them.

CALIFORNIA, 1993: A man snorkeling with friends is swallowed headfirst halfway down his body--luckily, the shark spits him back out with only bite wounds. AUSTRALIA, 1993: A professional diver and mother of five is literally torn in half in front of her horrified family by a fifteen-foot great white shark. HAWAII, 1991: Two vacationing friends out for a swim suddenly see a shark "the size of a car" swim by. After one of the women begins thrashing in panic, the shark attacks and kills her--her body is later recovered with several limbs missing. Read on for more blood-chilling accounts of people who fell prey to...SHARK ATTACKS.

Think you're safe in the Med? Read about the Great Whites that thrive near holiday beaches. Think you're safe in large groups? Read about the sinking of the USS Indianapolis in 1945 when hundreds of sailors floated for days in shark-infested waters, being picked off one-by-one. Think you're safe at home? Read about the 69-year-old man, taking his regular evening swim, jumping off his backyard dock straight into the mouth of a bull shark. Many more extraordinary and gruesome accounts, including the shark-boat skipper who slit open the belly of a 360-kg tiger shark only to have a human head, pelvis, and arm come tumbling out, provide horrific and moving tales of shark encounters. The courage of survivors and those who have risked their lives to save shark attack victims is truly inspirational. Where can you find sharks? Features on different shark species with illustrations, fact boxes and maps show where they lurk around the world.

Download or read book Woman at Sea written by Catherine Poulain and published by Random House. This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **SHORTLISTED FOR THE SCOTT MONCRIEFF PRIZE 2019** **NOMINATED FOR THE MÉDICIS PRIZE 2018** 'A tale of travel and adventure, the story of a body utterly surrendered to pain and joy. It is mind-blowing, a delight.' Le Monde Lili is a runaway. She’s left behind her native France to go in search of freedom, of adventure, of life. Her search takes her to Kodiak, Alaska, home to a ragtag community of fishermen, army vets and drifters who man the island’s fishing fleet. Despite her tiny frame, faltering English and lack of experience, Lili lands a job on board the Rebel, the only woman on the boat. Out on the open sea, everything is heightened: colours are more vivid, sounds are louder and the work is harder than anything she's ever known. The terrifying intensity of the ocean is addictive to the point of danger. But Lili is not alone: in her fellow crewmembers she finds kindred spirits – men living on the edge, drawn to extremes. Based on Catherine Poulain’s own experiences, and written in taut, muscular prose, Woman at Sea cuts through the noise of life and straight to the heart of our innermost longings.
Book Synopsis The Great Barrier Reef (Revised Edition) by : James Woodford
Download or read book The Great Barrier Reef (Revised Edition) written by James Woodford and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The real Great Barrier Reef is not just a single clown fish or a colony of branching stag horn coral. Nor is it simply the crystal clear water, cocktails and beautiful bodies of the tourist ads. It is not just the stage for murders, mishaps, shipwrecks, or shark attacks. The real Great Barrier Reef is a living thing - a 2600-kilometre-long, untamed organism, made up of trillions of animals. It is the magnificent and terrifying home to the wild things of nightmares and hallucinations. James Woodford wanted to understand the real reef in all its complexities and along its entire, extraordinary length. For a year he worked and dived with marine biologists, exploring it from the coral outpost of Lord Howe Island in the south to the crocodile haunted waters at the reef's northern boundary in Cape York.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On October 15, 1959 a seventeen-year-old boy was stricken with polio and hospitalized for an entire year, emerging with need of a wheelchair -- a quadriplegic for life. On September 16, 1964, less than five years later, having finished his university studies, he sat alone on a prop-driven Constellation bound for Colombia, South America. He was about to embark on eleven years of adventures -- from the dim, forbidden forests of the Darien south of Panama to the tempestuous Pacific coast to the unexplored Orinoco Basin, and to live with Indian tribes deep in the Amazon who had rarely seen whites. The tales of these experiences depict the dreamlike beauties of the steamy jungle, guerrilla activities in the lofty Andes, the warmth and charm of the Colombian people, and hair-raising violence...
