"A guidebook with wonderful pictures, line drawings, and illustrations. . . . An invaluable resource for laypersons and students alike."--Choice
"The best word to describe this guide is 'lush.' From the gorgeous jacket photos to the hundreds of illustrations, it is a joy to behold. And because the authors are knowledgeable while at the same time wonderful writers, it is a joy to read as well."Charleston Post and Courier
"This book is called a guide, but it has enough information for a marine biology course."--Woodenboat Review
"This comprehensive work is written by recognized authorities in a discursive style that will entertain and inform the reader."--Current Books on Gardening and Botany
"Offers the reader a rich understanding of the relationship between organisms and where they live. . . . A valuable resource for naturalists, students, and anyone who lives or vacations along the Atlantic Inner Coast."--Abstracts of Public Administration, Development, and Environment
