The diversity of storytellers and human characters—with a particular focus on people from non-Western, non-white ethnic backgrounds—helps us to see that the ocean is for everyone. Fresh, accessible, and with entertaining illustrations, these are stories worth telling and well told." -- Helen Scales, author of The Brilliant Abyss

"Ahab's Rolling Sea is a wide-ranging, highly personal, richly eclectic, and extremely well-researched book.There's a Melvillean romance here, and it sits especially well with King's love and empathy for human as well as natural history. A contemporary, witty, almost postmodern field guide." --Philip Hoare, author of The Sea Inside  and The Whale

"A brilliant book. It's scientifically well-informed, serious, funny, and full of good stories."-- Living Bird
