In Of Orcas and Men, a marvelously compelling mix of cultural history, environmental reporting, and scientific research, David Neiwert explores how this extraordinary species has come to capture our imaginations-and the catastrophic environmental consequences of that appeal.Orcas are one of Earths most intelligent animals. Benign and gentle, with their own languages and cultures, orcas amazing capacity for long-term memory and, arguably, compassion, makes the ugly story of the captive-orca industry especially damning.In the tradition of Barry Lopezs classic Of Wolves and Men, David Neiwerts book is a powerful tribute to one of the animal kingdoms most remarkable members.Powerful and beautifully written. -Jane Goodall
