The Depths of the Sea is a comprehensive account of the findings and discoveries made during the dredging cruises of H.M.S.S. Porcupine and Lightning between 1868 and 1870, written by C. Wyville Thomson. The book provides an in-depth exploration of the ocean's depths, including the geology, biology, and ecology of the sea floor. The author describes the various species of marine life that were discovered during the expeditions, including new species of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and other creatures. The book also includes detailed illustrations and photographs of the specimens collected during the cruises. Thomson's account of the dredging cruises is a valuable resource for anyone interested in marine biology, oceanography, or the history of scientific exploration.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
