Else B. in the sea : the woman who painted the wonders of the deep
(Picture Book)

Includes bibliographical references.

"Else Bostelmann donned a red swimsuit and a copper diving helmet and, with paints and brushes in hand, descended into the choppy turquoise sea off the coast of Bermuda. It was 1930, and few had ventured deep into the sea before. She discovered a fairyland six fathoms below the surface-fantastic coral castles, glittering sunbeams, swaying sea plumes, and schools of fish. Deep under the water, Else painted these never-before-seen deep-sea creatures. Back on land, Else worked with world-renowned scientist William Beebe to re-create the fascinating world that existed underneath the waves. It was a daring and glamorous adventure, and a dream come true for Else, who shared this new, unfathomable world with humankind"-- Provided by publisher.
