Science entwines with matters of the human heart as a whale researcher chronicles the lives of an endangered family of orcas Ever since Eva Saulitis began her whale research in Alaska in the 1980s, she has been drawn deeply into the lives of a single extended family of endangered orcas struggling to survive in Prince William Sound. Over the course of a decades-long career spent observing and studying these whales, and eventually coming to know them as individuals, she has, sadly, witnessed the devastation wrought by the Exxon Valdez oil spill of 1989--after which not a single calf has been born to the group. With the intellectual rigor of a scientist and the heart of a poet, Saulitis gives voice to these vital yet vanishing survivors and the place they are so loyal to. Both an elegy for one orca family and a celebration of the entire species, Into Great Silence is a moving portrait of the interconnectedness of humans with animals and place--and of the responsibility we have to protect them.Binding Type: Paperback

Borderline Fraud: A Profound Waste of Money
Size: 11, Color: A-black
The shoe pictured and the shoe delivered may as well be from another planet. Pictured is a fairly nice, well constructed shoe made of what appears to be leather or a high quality leather substitute. Delivered was a flimsy shoe made of plasticky vinyl with a sole constructed of grainy rubber blocks individually and sloppily glued without care to the bottom of the shoe, also vinyl with an eight of an inch of the same grainy rubber coating it, offering no solidity or support.
Having been worn a total of one day, the majority of which was spent seated at a desk, the vinyl has already crumpled into unattractive wrinkles and creases that resemble nothing so much as a cheap vinyl table covering wadded up and stretched back out. Taking the shoes off resulted in both insoles clinging to my socks and coming fully out of the shoe.
I would also mention that the shoe runs large, but I that would indicate that you should use my experience as a buying guide, when nothing could be further from the case. Buy these shoes only if you enjoy being ripped off, pouring money down the drain, or perhaps if you are looking for a gift for a person you despise. Outside of these possibilities, I advise you to run, far and immediately. You certainly won't be able to run anywhere with these on.

Very comfy and a really nice shoe—one flaw, but I still recommend it.
Size: 11.5, Color: Black Grainy
These shoes are nice, comfortable, with a sleek, leather-like insole that allows your foot to move well. The only thing they could have done better is extend the sole slightly farther at the tip. As it is, the lower front part of the shoe tends to scrape against the pavement, causing scuffs. It’s nothing that can’t be managed with shoe cream, but over time, the abrasion may cause more serious damage. That said, for the price, this is a nice shoe and should easily last at least a year.
