STUNNING book on Whales....10 stars!! WHALE WATCHER

The photos in this book are off the charts GEORGEOUS! Thee best I've ever seen. More RARE whales are included that are difficult to see/find any pictures of anywhere. this is a gem of a book!! I am a book fanatic...and this one is truly spectacular! Its a great gift book. Its easy to read, to handle, and the photos could all be framed. The best whale book out there.

Great Book

I bought this book because my Fiancee and I were going on an Alaskan cruise and a whale watching excursion. I tought it would be a handy reference book, but it is a little bit too big to easily carry around with you. It has great photos and a lot of good information in it to help you identify what you just saw. It is a really nice book and I just like looking through it. The size didn't really matter, because we were too busy oohhing and aahhing when we saw Humpback whales and Pacific White-sided Dolphins to be flipping through the book anyway.
