The World's Wild Shores by Christine Eckstrom, Tom Melham, Loren McIntyre, Thomas O'Neill, Jennifer C. Urquhart (National Geographic Society 1990)(508.3146). This is a beautiful National Geographic Society publication; it is an overview of the types of coastlines found throughout the world. The headings include Tropical Coasts, Warm Temperate Coasts, Desert Coasts, Cool Temperate Coasts, and Polar Coasts. There is nothing better than a National Geographic publication! My rating: 7/10, finished 8/22/14.
