How to Read Water: Clues and Patterns from Puddles to the Sea
A New York Times Bestseller
A Forbes Top 10 Conservation and Environment Book of 2016

Read the sea like a Viking and interpret ponds like a Polynesianâ€”with a little help from the â€œnatural navigatorâ€!
Â
In his eye-opening books The Lost Art of Reading Natureâ€™s Signs and The Natural Navigator, Tristan Gooley helped readers reconnect with nature by finding direction from the trees, stars, clouds, and more. Now, he turns his attention to our most abundantâ€”yet perhaps least understoodâ€”resource.
Â
Distilled from his far-flung adventuresâ€”sailing solo across the Atlantic, navigating with Omani tribespeople, canoeing in Borneo, and walking in his own backyardâ€”Gooley shares hundreds of techniques in How to Read Water. Readers will:
Â
- Find north using puddles
- Forecast the weather from waves
- Decode the colors of ponds
- Spot dangerous water in the dark
- Decipher wave patterns on beaches, and more!
