Looking for a (may be high school level) book on Oceanography, how ocean temperatures influence weather patterns on land, have influenced trade in the past, preferably with pictures. Thank you.

Almost 20 years ago I was reading a high school text book on this subject which was very interesting. It had these phenomena explained in simple English (but not dumbed down like a picture book.)

Don’t want a little kids board book or a masters thesis. Somewhere in between. Thank you.
