About the book

Where and what is the Bermuda Triangle? Do sea wasps sting? Why is a ship's control room called a bridge? What is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch? What causes the Northern/Southern Lights? Written in the same entertaining style as the first book, and once again illustrated with black and white line drawings, these and many more intriguing questions are answered with clarity and charm. For anyone with an interest in the sea, this is a feast of facts and figures to satisfy the curious mind—a delightful bunkside or armchair read.
