Summary:Revisiting some of the locations seen by John Steinbeck, Pino Cacucci travels the length of Baja California, the world's longest peninsula. Along the way, he hears the story of a man still suffering from injuries sustained during his past life as a pirate, tales of buried treasure chests, and of the trials of Jesuit missionaries among the Indios. But it is the whales, with their extraordinary intelligence, playfulness, sense of revenge, and touching generosity, that capture the author's heart. Written with humility and humor, The Whales Know is an insight into a land where appearances can be deceptive.
