Long before shark attacks made headlines from New Jersey to Florida,
Tigers of the Sea explored the depths of the oceans in search of all
types of sharks, many species of which had yet to be discovered. This
classic of the sea from 1936 not only describes the biology and habitat
of the various new species, but also provides information on tackle,
bait, and methods of fishing for sharks. Given the reputation of the
author's subject, each chapter is filled with thrilling discoveries and
breathtaking moments-and narrow escapes.
