About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“It is … a joyful romp through the history of oceanography that will appeal to both those in the field and those curious about it—touching not just on oceanography, but Earth sciences in general. … So my recommendation is: Go ahead, get to know Walter. You’ll be glad you did.” (Jerome A. Smith, Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, December, 2011)Authors and Affiliations
