Description
The definitive biography of the world’s most important body of water – the Atlantic.
One hundred and ninety million years ago, the shifting of two of the world’s tectonic plates led to the creation of an immense chasm. This giant gash in the flanks of the planet slowly opened up and eventually evolved into the most important and most travelled ocean in our world.
In this utterly original biography, Simon Winchester explores the life of the Atlantic; it’s birth, its relationship with mankind, and what lies in store for it once man has left the stage
Completely unique and highly readable, Atlantic takes its reader on a wonderful journey through time, along the waves of our planet’s most significant ocean.
