Book AuthorAndrew Stevenson
Rights Available World excl. NZ

A magnificent collection of photography coupled with a deeper insight into the character and habits of these massive, powerful and highly intelligent behemoths of the ocean. Marine scientists know a lot about the behaviour of humpbacks in their feeding and breeding grounds close to shore, but there has previously been little documented on the humpbacks’ mid-ocean migratory behaviour. As a mid-ocean platform, the author’s home of bermuda provides a unique window into the lives of the humpbacks. Author Andrew Stevenson started his research on humpbacks in 2007 while making the award-winning documentary film ‘Where the Whales Sing’.
