‘Into Great Silence: A Memoir of Discovery and Loss among Vanishing Orcas’ by Eva Saulitis
Eva Saulitis's book, Into Great Silence: A Memoir of Discovery and Loss among Vanishing Orcas, is an absolute heart-breaker. Saulitis, who began her whale research in Alaska in the 1980s, became especially focused on one single family of endangered orcas, and subsequently witnessed the devastation of their habitat and their genetic diversity as a result of the Exxon Valdez oil spill of 1989. Demonstrating both the real devastation that the extinction of even one family of orcas has on the health of the entire species, as well as the interconnections of the ocean's health with that of humans', Into Great Silence will make you think about the great responsibility humans have to the animals we share the Earth with.
