Do dolphins ever sleep? 211 Questions about Ships, the Sky and the Sea

Publisher: Adlard Coles Nautical, £9.99
Publication Date: 2007

Everything you never knew you wanted to know about the watery seven tenths of the planet. Curious about how fish swim? Apply within. Baffled by the uses of half-hull models of sailing boats? It's in there too. Wondering why winches work, which whale is which, why the weather is wet, or who does what on an America's Cup boat? It's all there. This book will grace the smallest room in any house. A word of caution, though; it seems to have originated in French, been literally translated into American, printed in China, and published unedited in England. None of these things make it any easier to read. – SLI
