GOLD MEDAL: THE BILL FISHER AWARD FOR BEST FIRST BOOK
The first in a series of exquisitely crafted green press run books, each individually autographed by Jean-Michel Cousteau. Only 1000 copies of this special limited edition have been printed and are available for order now.
America’s Underwater Treasures is the book by Jean-Michel Cousteau and Julie Robinson, with stunning photography by Carrie Vonderhaar, on the 13 American National Marine Sanctuaries and one Marine National Monument. It dramatically captures the adventure the Cousteau team experienced exploring these sanctuaries for a two-hour PBS television special, in partnership with OFS and KQED.
America’s Underwater Treasures is part grand adventure, part intelligent inquiry into the health of the oceans, and part visual poetry. Original Cousteau enthusiasts and modern environmental adventurers will appreciate the stunning photography, engaging text and first-person behind-the scenes narratives that guide the reader through the thirteen U.S. National Marine Sanctuaries and the new Marine National Monument. Equally impressive; this volume is a certified green press-run book by the Rainforest Alliance
and Forest Stewardship Council.
A limited edition publication, hardbound with dust jacket and slipcover, certified by the Rainforest Alliance and the Forest Stewardship Council.
