The Outer Beach by Robert Finch
A lyrical travelogue and natural-history portrait of Florida’s Atlantic coastline, following a thousand-mile sweep of barrier islands, dunes, estuaries and seaside towns while blending personal observation, historical reportage and ecological detail; the narrator chronicles the lives of shorebirds, sea turtles and fishing communities, the rhythms of storms and tides, and the human forces—development, engineering and tourism—that have eroded habitats and transformed the shore, arguing through vivid scenes and careful reporting for greater stewardship of a fragile, constantly changing seascape.
