In The Year of the Whale (winner of the John Burroughs Medal), Victor Scheffer brilliantly combines scientific documentation with imaginative reconstruction to present a detailed and absorbing account pf the first year in the life of a sperm whale. This is a reliable and informative introduction to the study of the whale which provides fascinating insights into the habits of the grandest of all animals.
