Sharks

At last, a fantastically illustrated new addition to the classic nature guide series.

A Golden Guide to Sharks, like all the books in the series, presents a general overview of its subject in accessible prose, illuminated by detailed illustrations of the species discussed. It's directness enables it to be appreciated by young and mature audiences alike.
