Subtitled
A True Story of Obsession and Survival Among America's Great White Sharks. Amazing nonfiction about the forboding Farallone Islands off the coast of California and the eccentric scientists who study the great white sharks and birds in residence there. Compelling story about a truly unique geographical place, which is so unwelcoming that boats have to be winched up the cliffs. Beautifully evokes the vastness of the ocean, but also includes hilarious bits such as the clueless tour boats which unload loads of yummy looking tourists in inner tubes right into shark-infested waters.
