"The Two-Headed Whale vividly brings to life the spectacular scenery and wildlife of the vast Southern Oceans, set alongside the true-life story of Anthony Ford, the boy in the grave, as he sailed the same seas and toiled in an industry where profits outranked human life. Drawing together threads of nature and travel writing with an unflinching narrative of life aboard a whaling factory ship and the legacy it left behind, The Two-Headed Whale leaves us questioning our troubled relationship with the extraordinary abundance of this planet."--

In a time of ecological crisis, there is much to be learned from the way the whaling industry operated. This Heart of Darkness journey draws prophetic parallels to the present day climate emergency and recognises that environmental and human exploitation are deeply entwined.
