Shark!: True Stories and Lessons from the Deep Paperback – 6 May 2003

Bought for a gift

I bought this ages ago and couldn't put it down. It follows Peter Benchley after his hugely successful novel "Jaws" and details some of his real-life encounters whilst exploring the deep blue sea. It is a factual, easy read and a must for all shark fans. It also offers some sound advice for those who want to keep safe in the water - not only from sharks. It is a hugely interesting read which will make you laugh out loud in parts, and keep you on the edge of your seat in others. After reading this book I have a greater respect for this relatively unknown species, and an even more profound fascination of the Great White Shark.
