Encounters with Great White Sharks: Florida and the Gulf of Mexico

No marine predator receives as much popular attention as the great white shark, yet this fascinating creature is still not well-known in all parts of its range. Author John Hairr brings some light to the travels of this species along the Florida coastline and in the Gulf of Mexico, through historical records and interviews with those divers, fishermen, and marine biologists fortunate enough to have encountered great whites in this region. Several photos of sharks captured by marine scientists and fishermen in southeastern waters are included.
