wow.... wow....

You won't get a scientific or intellectual review from me on this book. uh uh. We sailed out to Stellwagen Bank and encountered so many humpback whales... and while we were in our own little sailboat! What a thrill. After doing this a couple of times, I sought out some books on humpbacks to keep onboard. This is one of my favorites. Majestic, beautiful animals. Surreal experience... and it's nice to have a book that brings me back to those magical moments. (sigh) Wow.

great book

World Life Library produces some of the best books with regards to ceteceans. This book is no exception. Expertly written by Dr Phil Clapham, its a vivid potrayal of one of earth's most beautiful and yet mysterious marine mammal's, the humpback whale. Great book packed with excellent pictures.
