Chasing the Tide by conservationists Chrissy Kleberg and Jay Kleberg recounts one couple’s 370-mile trek across the Barrier Islands of Texas, from the Louisiana border to the Rio Grande. Originally a series on PBS, this companion book tells the story of that journey, the wildlife and people along the way, and the rising seas that threaten the ecological environment.
