This field guide to 'Whales and Dolphins of New Zealand and Australia' by Alan N. Baker was first published by Victoria University press in 1983, so it's overdue for an overhaul. Despite that, it remains a very valuable guide to the 'lives and identities of whales and dolphins'.Illustrated. 134 pages.
