Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This is the true story of a humpback whale named 'Inland,' and the people who came to know her during the autumn she spent close to shore in Salem, Massachusetts. The book is set in Salem Harbor, where local resident Kerry Griffin was stunned one morning when a twenty-eight foot long humpback whale surfaced right beside his dinghy as he was hauling up lobster traps. Griffin told Salem's harbormaster and others. Soon, news of the whale spread by word of mouth and through the Boston media. Hundreds of people came to watch the whale spout and breach, sometimes just fifty feet from shore. Mason Weinrich, chief scientist at The Whale Center of New England in Gloucester came to observe the whale, and named her 'Inland' because she stayed close to land and her fluke markings looked like the letters I and L.

Author Lisa Capone, a Boston Globe correspondent covering the North Shore of Massachusetts at the time of Inland's visit to the region, interweaves narrative and dialogue with facts about humpbacks, conservation concerns, and the fascinating but little-known process of 'rearticulating' a whale skeleton.…
