Secret Nature of the Channel Shore by Andrew Cooper

Accompanying a seven-part BBC 2 series, this book explores the nature of the English Channel's shores, which form the coastal margins of one of the busiest and best-known seaways in the world. The central theme of the book is the wildlife which is found from coast to coast across the Channel, from Ushant to the Isles of Scilly. Governed by natural elements and with one of the greatest tidal ranges in the world, the ebb and flow of the waters both reveal and hide a wealth of wildlife, from fragile rosy stars in the the depths of the sea to remarkable scenes of Atlantic grey seals in the surf. The book describes and analyzes the geographical features of the landscape surrounding the Channel shores, and explores the dramatic, delicate, bizarre and beautiful wildlife which inhabit this fascinating and varied waterway. The author has produced 28 natural history films for BBC Television, and won first prize at the 1986 International Festival for Nature Film Makers, for the "Secret Nature of Britain" series. His other books include "Watching Wildlife" and "Secret Nature of the Countryside".
