The Lost Continent

Coral Reef Conservation and Restoration in the Age of Extinction

By: David Alexander Baker

A poignant tribute to the beauty and necessity of coral reefs—and the incredible human efforts to save them.

More than half of the world’s coral reefs have been destroyed in the past fifty years due to the climate crisis. Through a series of gripping stories, author and documentarian David Alexander Baker helps readers gain a deeper understanding of coral reefs and why they are vital to the health of our oceans—and the survival of our planet—and highlights the incredible conservation and restoration strides being made around the world.
With over 60 breathtaking photographs of coral reefs spanning from Colombia to Australia to the Florida Keys readers will be moved both by the majesty of nature and the urgency to preserve and restore these great cities of the seas.
