This is the story of Australian Aborigines and dolphins, both possessing amazing powers of non-verbal communication over great distances. Long ago, before the white mancame both enjoyed a mutually benevolent relationship—often dolphins helped Aborigines fish; they warned them of approaching storms, and eventually of the invasion of the British ships. But after the British had conquered and killed many natives and forced the rest onto reservations in the interior of the land, they lost touch with each other.. Fast forward to today. An American family comes to Australia to live.The mother, a sociologist, accompanied by her children, goes to interview an Aborigine chief, They hear the chief tell of the sad loss of that relationship with the dolphins, including every year at summer solstice, they had had a celebration on the island lagoon, with the dolphins jumping and spinning and imitating the Aborigines playing flutes, sticks, and boomerangs. But now, sadly, all was lost. The children decided to go on an adventure with their new friend, the chief’s granddaughter. They borrowed a rowboat and started to cross the channel when a storm came up. Suddently there were several large bodies, the dolphins, pushing the boat toward the island lagoon. There they made new friends in the shallow waters of the barrier reef island. Their mission - to put the dolphins back in touch with their Aborogine friends attracted attention from all over the world. Finally there was a celebration like none other at the lagoon on the barrier island. It was the return of the ”corroborree” only this time with international celebrities to join in the “symphony of joy”. And the Aborigines, who had been almost a forgotten race until then, resumed their rightful place as Caretakers of Mother Earth.

In this memorable first book, Behind the Dolphin Smile, Richard O'Barry told the inspiring story of his personal transformation from world-famous dolphin trainer (Flipper was his pupil) to dolphin liberator. Now, in To Free a Dolphin, he passionately recounts the dramatic story of his heart-breaking campaign to release captive dolphins back into the wild. With wit and insight he chronicles the extreme opposition he has faced from bureaucrats, major players in the captive-dolphin industry, rival wildlife groups, and well-meaning sentimentalists. He introduces readers to famous show animals he has helped, including Bogie and Bacall of Key Largo. And, most fascinating, he describes his struggles to deprogram and rehabilitate dolphins emotionally scarred from years of captivity--struggles that become battles for the animals' souls.

“Impressive . . . [Cristina García’s] story is about three generations of Cuban women and their separate responses to the revolution. Her special feat is to tell it in a style as warm and gentle as the ‘sustaining aromas of vanilla and almond,’ as rhythmic as the music of Beny Moré.”—Time Cristina García’s acclaimed book is the haunting, bittersweet story of a family experiencing a country’s revolution and the revelations that follow. The lives of Celia del Pino and her husband, daughters, and grandchildren mirror the magical realism of Cuba itself, a landscape of beauty and poverty, idealism and corruption. Dreaming in Cuban is “a work that possesses both the intimacy of a Chekov story and the hallucinatory magic of a novel by Gabriel García Márquez” (The New York Times). In celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the novel’s original publication, this edition features a new introduction by the author. Praise for Dreaming in Cuban “Remarkable . . . an intricate weaving of dramatic events with the supernatural and the cosmic . . . evocative and lush.”—San Francisco Chronicle “Captures the pain, the distance, the frustrations and the dreams of these family dramas with a vivid, poetic prose.”—The Washington Post “Brilliant . . . With tremendous skill, passion and humor, García just may have written the definitive story of Cuban exiles and some of those they left behind.”—The Denver Post
