Title: Highly Improbable
Review: I'm not alone- Peter Benchley himself once said that if he had known anything about sharks he would never have written this book. Besides cliches like the Mayor not wanting to heed the sole voice of reason's warning, and the mayor really having mob connections, this book can be dismissed merely as MASSMARKETED MISIMFORMATIVE PARANOIA.The two biggest factual problems (not counting the numerous smaller ones) are:1. The shark stays offshore of Amity for weeks. Large sharks are NOT territorial- they travel and are unlikely to stay for more than an hour in any spot.2. The food- There is no way a twenty-five foot great white, which relies on fatty foods, could make a living off of humans alone. It would essentially die of malnutrition.Also, various series of attacks have happened, but not one (no, not even the 1916 attacks) have been conclusively linked to one shark.Over all, a very outdated book and highly unlikely book.
