ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I first fell in love with the Great Barrier Reef on a hapless BBC reenactment that I describe briefly in the Prologue. This also proved to be one of the more traumatic times of my life, and I would like to thank my friends and colleagues Jonathan Lamb, Vanessa Agnew, and Alex Cook for making it bearable, and so contributing over the long haul to the genesis of this book.
Shaping, researching, and writing The Reef has proved to be another type of long haul, one in which I was always sustained by the keen perceptions, good humor, and pithy editing skills of my loving wife, Kate Fullagar. And, as with previous books, my hardworking agent Mary Cunnane has offered unstinting wisdom, support, and guidance, ably assisted by Kathleen Anderson in New York and Natasha Fairweather in London.
