“Apart from being a good biography (of which this is a species of sorts), Atlantic, by Simon Winchester, is my favorite kind of book— a literate blend of history, geography, natural sciences and people, written by an author who loves all of the above and is clearly fascinated by his subject, in this case the (arguably) most interesting body of water on the planet.” (Harper Collins, $27.99) – Arlene, Watermark Books, Anacortes, Washington
