  1. H-Oceans just published a very kind review by Christine Keiner of my book Sea Level: A History (University of Chicago Press, 2024).

    What I can definitely agree on are the compliments to the jacket designer, Rae Ganci Hammers, for a stunningly beautiful cover.

  2. Forbes published a nice new review of my latest book: forbes.com/sites/brucedorminey

    “In a revelatory new book, Sea Level: A History, author Wilko Graf von Hardenberg, […], deftly chronicles just how difficult it was to come up with a standard method of measuring mean sea level. In the process, Hardenberg gives us a richly detailed yet very accessible history of how over five centuries, the concept of measuring mean sea level was a painstaking process that advanced in fits and starts.”
