Overview

The Sea-Coast, by William Henry Wheeler, explores the dynamic forces shaping coastlines. This treatise, originally published in 1902, delves into the destructive power of the sea, examining processes such as erosion and littoral drift. Wheeler meticulously details various methods of shoreline protection, offering insights into the engineering solutions employed to combat coastal degradation. Divided into three key sections â€"" ""Destruction,"" ""Littoral Drift,"" and ""Protection"" â€"" the book presents a comprehensive overview of coastal dynamics. Wheeler's work provides a valuable historical perspective on the challenges of managing and preserving coastal environments. This book is a valuable resource for civil engineers, oceanographers, and anyone interested in the ongoing battle between land and sea.
