Summary: "A true New Zealand story of a dolphin that captured the hearts of passengers in the 1880s. This is the heart-warming tale of Pelorus Jack, a rare white Risso's dolphin who delighted passengers over 100 years ago as he guided steamships through the rough waters of French Pass into the calm waters of the Marlborough Sounds. Passengers from around the world, even royalty, came to see him and it is believed he became the first sea creature to be protected by law in any country. A life-size bronze statue of Pelorus Jack stands at Collinet Point, overlooking French Pass. "--Publisher information.
