As the title suggestions, this is a combination of three genres in one book, all intended to celebrate and convey the infinite majesty and mystery of the sea. Many classic writers are represented, including Arthur Conan Doyle, Mikhail Lermontov, Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickinson, and John Masefield. Also included is a short excerpt from the official British report on the investigation of the Titanic sinking. The last section of the book is devoted to short summaries of intriguing facts from many sources, on subjects such as physical features, explorations, sea creatures, legends, and submarines. An effort has been made to avoid language that is so encumbered with jargon or old-fashioned English that it is difficult to understand. This book therefore presents a fascinating look at the sea from many angles and voices.
