SynopsisThe vast body of water formed by Puget Sound, the Strait of Juan de Fuca, and Georgia Strait is one of the richest marine environments in the world. This beautifully illustrated, informative volume celebrates the natural wonders of a unique and spectacular ecosystem. Intelligent and graceful, resident Orca whales travel and hunt throughout the inland waters-totemic spirits reigning over the aquatic food chain. Two hundred species of fish can be found here, including six types of salmon that return annually to spawn in their home rivers. In addition, one of North America's densest populations of bald eagles inhabits the region. These symbols of the West Coast-as will as thousands of other species (including the world's largest octopus and jellyfish)-combine for a colorful, stimulating natural history, Orcas, Eagles & Kings features 180 full-colour photographs by such well-respected photographers as Edward S. Curtis, Ken Balcomb, Doug Wechsler, and Art Wolfe.
