                                  The English Channel

     The length of the Channel from the Atlantic Ocean to the North Sea is 350 miles.
It separates England's south coast from the France's north coast. At its widest point
it's 120 miles while at its narrowest - it's only 21 miles.
     The Channel has been Britain's deference against enemies. It has also been the
way to the Continent. Sailors know the Channel as perhaps the most dangerous sea
channel in Europe. Half of all the world's sea catastrophes take place between the
Western end of the Channel and the Baltic.
     Several armies have crossed the Channel, but no one has crossed for over nine
centuries, though some have tried.
     Over the years, people have crossed it by balloon, boat, parachute, water - skis,
and swimming. Now that the tunnel under the Channel is in operation it has become
easy and safe to cross it.
