Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine condition gray boards/black spine/silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition color photographic dust jacket. Includes Preface; About This Book; Glossary; Index and Acknowledgments. Profusely illustrated with color photographs, black-and-white ph…otographs, and drawings, plus illustrated front and rear endpapers. Signed and inscribed by the Photographer/Designer/Editor, Robert B. Goodman, with thin black Sharpie/pen on the upper left corner of the blank verso page of the first free front illustrated endpaper. (see photographs). ".Author MacKinnon Simpson and photographer/editor/art director Robert B. Goodman spare the reader little in these pages. Through a richly informative juxtaposition of prose and picture, we experience the considerable dangers of hunting and harpooning the great whale, and we sense the grisly aftermath of cutting whale blubber into blanket pieces, horse pieces and bible leaves, to be rendered into oil. Here too, are the awed children accompanying their whaling captain fathers, and the young Hawaiians who signed on as crewmen for the money - a few cents a day. Whaling was not for the tender-hearted. Simpson's gutsy prose and Goodman's eye-riveting photographs and layouts show why a sensitive man like Herman Melville found the life so unromantic that he jumped ship not once, but twice, and yet was so possessed by his experiences that he spent the rest of his life writing about them. Happily, a little more than a century later, man's pursuit of whales for food and fashion products like lipstick and soap has steadily declined, down from the 32,000 kills in 1974 to less than a hundred in 1986. [The book] is a timely paen of remembrance for the gentle beings so mercilessly hunted down in the Pacific. It also is an ardent plea for a more loving and conservatory use of our world's fragile living resources, and a celebration that the killing has finally been stopped. The creators of this book believe it is not too late to take to heart a simpler precept of the original inhabitants of the Hawaiian Islands."Be content with your share." - excerpt from the inner front jacket flap. ABOUT ROBERT . GOODMAN: THE PHOTOGRAPHER / DESIGNER / EDITOR: Robert B. Goodman was born in Cincinnati, and first arrived in Hawai'i as a photo-journalist, then joined National Geographics staff, lived as an Aquanaut with Cousteau in the Red Sea, produced and photographed the landmark all-time best-selling books, The Australians and The Hawaiians, and co-founded Island Heritage, which published some eighty books on Island life. In 1985 Goodman co-published Within a Rainbowed Sea and Moloka'i, An Island in Time, the two most award-winning books in American publishing history. Invited by the Lahaina Whaling Museum to create this book, Goodman joined with his longtime friend MacKinnon Simpson in producing both the first major picture and word book ever published on fifty crucial years of Hawai'i's history, as well as the world's first coffee table book ever created with Apple Computer's Macintosh and LaserWriter desktop publishing system. Goodman lives in Hawai'i." - from the rear inner jacket flap. Goodman, Robert B. (Photographer, Designer, and Editor) (illustrator). Signed by Author(s).
