Very interesting and intriguing examination of human-whale relationship throughout the years. Re-awakened my love for whales and also made me really angry and sad.
The way the author tried to tie in his own life seemed a bit random and out of place at times. There were some very confusing jumps in the storytelling ocassionally.
