"East Coast Atlantic Beaches features over 80 museum-quality photographs of lush and serene seascape scenes from world-renowned black-and-white photographer Michael Kahn. These warmly toned black-and-white seaside photographs range from Georgia to Maine, showcasing the beauty of the sand and the sea that speaks to so many of us. Michael grew up spending summer vacations on these Atlantic beaches, and his personal connection to the landscape shines through each minute detail. "Ever since I can remember," Michael says, "I have been infatuated with the sea. I swam, sailed, fished, and collected shells and sharks' teeth that had washed up on the sand. I hid in the dunes and marveled at the treasures the water and wind revealed, then covered again." These luminous silver gelatin prints, developed in Michael's darkroom, masterfully capture the majestic beauty of these beaches."--Publisher's description

At first glance, the beach may appear to be an endless, flat, monotone landscape meant only for swimming, snoozing, or working on your tan. Upon closer inspection, though, the beach reveals that it has myriad treasures for the curious to locate, such as ephemeral beach ripples decorating the sand, traces of miniature organisms inscribed on dunes, and armored mudballs. Atlantic Coast Beaches, from Maine to Florida, are full of amazing features formed by the interactions between tides, currents, bedrock, weather, beach critters, and much more. Written for a general audience, Atlantic Coast Beaches: A Guide to Ripples, Dunes, and Other Natural Features of the Seashore covers everything, from microscopic nematodes to the potentially cataclysmic changes occurring along the coastline due to rising sea level. Its clear writing, illustrative photographs, and instructive diagrams answer some curious questions, such as why do some sands bark and sing, how do miniature sand volcanoes form, and how do barrier islands migrate?
