In "Deep Water: The World in the Ocean", James Bradley embarks on a captivating exploration of Earth's most enigmatic realm. This masterful work delves into the intricate relationship between humanity and the vast bodies of water that have shaped our planet's destiny.
Bradley's narrative prowess shines as he navigates the depths of oceanic history, from the primordial formation of the seas to their pivotal role in sustaining all forms of life. With the precision of a detective and the wonder of an adventurer, he uncovers the ocean's hidden marvels, including the astonishing electromagnetic navigation of migratory fish and the epic voyages of human seafarers.
This compelling blend of scientific insight, historical revelation, and environmental commentary not only celebrates the ocean's majesty but also sounds a clarion call for its preservation. As Bradley scrutinises the looming ecological crisis, he presents a cogent argument for the seas' potential to be our ultimate salvation.
"Deep Water" offers readers a fresh perspective on our place within the global ecosystem, inviting us to plunge into the unknown and resurface with a profound understanding of the world beneath the waves.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
