In October 1988 an Inuit hunter saw three grey whales
trapped in the frozen Arctic ocean near Barrow, an
isolated Alaskan outpost. They were working together to
keep their blow hole open, the two adolescents caring
for the weaker baby. It was a poignant sight. Filmed by
a local television reporter, this tiny regional news
story snowballed into a global media frenzy. In this
gripping, insightful book Tom Rose describes how
journalists poured into Barrow, all woefully ill
equipped for the sub-zero temperatures, warming up on
bootleg alcohol. As the locals cheerfully found ways to
profit from the visitors, Greenpeace activist Cindy
Lowry battled to mount an extraordinary rescue operation
that would unite conservationists and oil companies, the
Inuit and the military, President Reagan and the
Kremlin. 'At times a marvellously funny story ...Beneath
the heartwarming aspect of the rescue are darker tales
of human greed, and about the power television has
acquired to set the agenda of the news' Washington Post
'Few novels could match the characters, plot and
dramatic tension' Chicago Tribune |
