Drawing from her remarkable collection of more than 4,000 pieces—some dating back to the 17th century—she brings each find to life with dramatic, history-rich stories that reveal how these artifacts made their journey into the sea. Along the way, pick up practical tips and tricks to begin your own beachcombing adventures with a sharper eye and a deeper appreciation for the past.
