Hardcover. Condition: Good. Jerry Bywaters (illustrator). See photos for condition details. Hardcover, described and signed by the author on the front end page. Also found within the book was a four-page short story, and a newspaper clipping (not pictured) talking about how Earl Philips was able to get a convict released for a week so he can take them down to Big Spring so they can hear his music. The tan cloth exterior of the book is quite spotted and soiled, spine is darkened and there is a rectangular spot near the title on the front, presumably from a price sticker. The internal binding is good, no hinge issues. Pages are toned due to age and there is some spotting and smudge marks scattered about. No other handwriting noted other than the author's inscription, no bookplates, no library markings. Copyright page states fifth printing. Signed by Author(s).

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Between New Year's Day and New Year's Eve of 2015, author Jerry Shine dove up and down the East Coast of North America, through winter storms and summer heat waves. A Year Underwater is his record of that year, of creatures mating, spawning, hiding and making meals of one another, all within a stone's throw of the beach. Nowhere in the world can you get closer to wildlife than you can in the ocean. A Year Underwater takes you there, within inches of squadrons of squid, seven-foot sharks, 20-pound lobsters, and myriad creatures living in minuscule worlds almost too small to see. This is a book for anyone who loves the feel of the ocean, or who's ever looked at it and wondered what was happening beneath its surface.
