"The Whale: In Search of the Giants of the Sea" (HarperCollins), by Philip Hoare: A subject as big as the whale demands a book as broad as "The Whale." Part memoir, part nature writing and part literary criticism, the book takes readers around the world for an exhaustive look at the mysterious mammal. Philip Hoare begins his book in the steps of Herman Melville's Ishmael, visiting the famous 19th-century whaling ports Nantucket and New Bedford, Mass., before tracing the cultural significance of the whale from Jonah to "Free Willy." For readers who don't love science, there might be dull moments. But entertaining and educational, "The Whale" is an all-encompassing look at how an animal most people never see has impacted our history and inspired our imagination.
