Author: CARSON, Rachel,
Title: The Sea Around Us.
Description: London: Staples Press, (1951). First Edition. The uncommon first British edition of her second book, a bestseller that won both the National Book Award and the John Burroughs Medal, as well as serving as the basis for the Oscar-winning documentary of the same name: this title alone would have served as more than adequate legacy had she not exponentially expanded her impact by writing Silent Spring. This is a good copy, with minor foxing to the endpages, bowing to the boards, and dampstaining surrounding the front joint; lacking the dust jacket. Unless otherwise noted, our first editions are first printings.
