But the real history of Franklin and its people encompasses much more. Prehistoric mastodon hunters. Native American villages. Civil War battles. Floods. Urban sprawl. Political squabbles.

Watch their fascinating mating dance, as the two of them twine their tails together and twirl, before she places her eggs in his pouch to be born. Could there be a more intriguing creature of the sea? Back matter includes an index, and a note about sea horses.
