A pioneering work on the decorative and functional uses of large cetacean bones, documenting almost 1,000 large-whale bones in over 650 locations in the UK. It evaluates over 1,100 written sources and hundreds of pictures and hundreds of interviews with local people, the result of 30 years of research and travels to almost every single one of these locations.
