Description: Ocean life expert Richard Ellis provides an authoritative study of the most mysterious of ocean creatures--the giant sea squid. Interweaving engrossing narrative with revealing illustrations, Ellis gives us the complete history of this rare "sea monster". 40 line drawings. 20 photos.
Synopsis: Lurking in the depths of the ocean is a fearsome creature of proportions that stagger the imagination. At least sixty feet long and weighing more than a ton; with two elongated, whip-like tentacles and eight grasping arms studded with toothed suckers; with a huge beak between its arms and two lidless eyes the size of dinner plates---this is the giant squid, one of the largest animals on earth and one of the least known. Until now.
