Synopsis "Bird of Passage"

Hard work, no pay, and embarrassing conditions can't stop a young Woods Hole artist from signing on as the ship's mechanic for his first oceanographic expedition. Calvin Landry is seasick, out of his depth in science, and hopelessly smitten with a member of the scientific crew-what begins as awkward survival quickly turns into a stirring tale of love, discovery, and courage at sea.
Bird of Passage is a fictional account of E.K. King's first shark tracking cruise with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution scientist Dr. Frank Carey. A pioneer in acoustic fish tracking and considered a world's authority on the physiology, behavior, and ecology of the great migrating fishes of the sea-among them tuna, sharks, and swordfish. In 1979 Dr. Carey was the first to record the internal body temperature and electronically track a great white shark.

"Fast, warm, and vividly maritime, this is a coming-of-age sea story where science sparks romance, and the wide Atlantic
becomes both classroom and crucible."
