Tidal Life: A Natural History of the Bay of Fundy - by Harry Thurston

Tidal Life is the definitive natural and human history of the unique and massive Bay of Fundy. With visual reminders of the Bay’s immensity and impact. Winner of the Evelyn Richardson Award for non fiction, the Dartmouth Book Award for non-fiction and the Atlantic Provinces Booksellers Choice Award.

The Bay of Fundy is not only important to those who live along its shores, it is a globally significant ecosystem. Tidal Life is a celebration, in words and pictures, of one of Canada’s most beautiful regions and an impassioned plea for its preservation.
