About This Item
Good+ Trade Paperback 268 pp. NOT a library copy No writing in book Just some shelf wear handling. See our scanYou would not be too far off mark to say it is a bit like Moby Dick but for seals, but instead of the White Whale that intimidates here the Seal Folk inspire a quest to Scottish Islands and the West of Ireland and beyond. Excellent writing as well
