Julia Whitty's Deep Blue Home
From the waters of Newfoundland to the Galapagos and Baja California, this new volume of gorgeous personal essays from Julia Whitty takes you under its wing, literally, as the author studies seabirds and everything else living at and beyond the wild edge of the sea. It’s a refreshing and inspiring read that rings with her clear voice and lyrical prowess. Whitty is a poet with her feet rooted solidly in science, as Edward Abbey would say, and the world does not get to enjoy world class natural history this thoroughly often enough.
