They are the largest creatures who have ever lived! Their intellects, superior to our own, are so totally alien, it renders them forever incomprehensible to us. These beings are the great whales of our planet's oceans. There's not time to unravel the mysteries of their existence, for within the lifetime of our children, these wonders will become extinct thanks to our having hunted them into oblivion. In the short time left in which we share this planet, it therefore becomes the task of the novelist to explore whale lives and their wet geographies. Gordon Glass's Latest novel, There Were Giants, does just this. Opening with these strange words: "It was the last one. It was the last one...," being repeatedly muttered via radio from the Japanese whaling fleet's flagship, the tone is set for wonder and discovery. Further, there is this mysterious, living stream; scores of whales are congregating and encircling the silent, unmoving whaling ship. And lastly, there is the awful sense of guilt and loss which overwhelmed the crew of the "Whalesaver," the Greenpeace-like anti-whaling vessel trailing the strangely becalmed whaling ship ahead of them. Then this weird mood-visitation lifted as mysteriously and as suddenly as it had arrived. Temporarily leaving these mysteries to be resolved later, the novel plunges into the lives of at least four major characters, one of which is Circleback, the last blue whale in the world. The lives of these characters become inextricably intertwined, knitting into a wonderful weave of loves and rivalries; defeats and victories. This plus-size epic, alternating between human and whale characters, forms the grandest sea-saga since Moby Dick.

The blue whale holds the title of largest creature that has ever lived, and it may also be the most mysterious. The biggest blue whales can outweigh every player in Major League Baseball and the National Hockey League combined. Their mouths can gulp more than thirteen thousand gallons of seawater. A newborn can be over twenty feet long and gain nearly twenty tons in seven months—about eight pounds per hour. Blue whales emit more powerful sounds than any other animal on earth, though many of their vocalizations are beyond the range of human hearing. Yet nearly everything that we have learned about blue whales has come after humans almost wiped them out from the oceans. A century ago, some three hundred thousand roamed the seas. But in the first decades of the twentieth century, humans hunted and killed 99.9% of them. Their numbers decimated, the species seemed destined for extinction. Only in recent years has the number slowly begun to increase, along with hope for the blue whale's future. Equal parts history and science, Wild Blue is the first comprehensive portrait of the blue whale. It draws upon new findings from scientists who have begun to identify individual blue whales and understand how they dive, how they feed, where they migrate, and why they emit their haunting, low-frequency calls. With deft, poignant writing, Dan Bortolotti gives us the most vibrant, breathtaking view to date of these magnificent creatures.
