Douglas P.Wilson (1902-1991) was both a distinguished marine biologist and a pioneer natural history photographer whose work won many awards, including the prestigious Honorary Fellowship of the Royal Photographic Society. These engaging memoirs, part autobiography and part natural history, are plentifully illustrated, including photos taken in the 1920s and 1930s when great ingenuity was required on the part of the photographer. Douglas Wilson tells of his early struggles with flash photography, while describing with a lively enthusiasm some of the many curious creatures whose lives he recorded during more than sixty years of observation of the underwater world. Sea Life in Focus has a Foreword by the late eminent bird photographer, Eric Hosking.
