Rick and Anne Martin's shark
website. My Favorite
Shark website. This is the best and
most educational
shark site on the internet in my opinion.
When you get to the site in the lower left column click on Shark
Information
that will bring you to http://www.elasmo-research.org/site_map.htm
which is a treasure trove of shark information.

This is a fantastic book on the fatal 1916 New

It has great insight into the attacks, and the people and
attitudes of that time period .
The book is thoroughly researched.
