"Edifying and hugely entertaining. . . . O'Hanlon's is a
magnificently original voice: manic, scholarly, funny, sumptuously
descriptive, and more than slightly deranged." -Jon Krakauer
"One of the most thrilling and inspiring books about science I've
ever read . . . hours of pleasure offered by an enchanting dinner
guest [who] often reveals himself to be foolishly bold, comically
inept, intellectually astute and a madcap driver: Mr. Toad with a
Ph.D."
-Bruce Barcott, "The New York Times Book Review"
""Trawler" read[s] like "The Perfect Storm" meets "Monty
Python,""-"Outside"
"O'Hanlon is an adventurer worthy of the word-a credentialed
naturalist, a rompish wanderer, a sparkling armchair companion, a
bit of a goof and also a smashingly evocative writer. . . . In that
wild and exhilarating junction where human and nature meet, he
pursues the joys of discovery."-"Los Angeles Times Book Review"
