520    Island communities in the Caribbean and the North Atlantic
       still use traditional methods to hunt whales and dolphins 
       for food. Despite declining stocks worldwide and 
       increasing health risks, artisanal whaling remains a 
       popular practice tied to nature's rhythms. The Wake of the
       Whale presents the art, history, and purpose of whaling in
       these different cultures and climates, and describes what 
       the future of these societies might look like as modern 
       realities take hold. Sightings of pilot whales in the 
       frigid Nordic waters have drawn residents of the Faroe 
       Islands to their boats and beaches for nearly a thousand 
       years. Down in the tropics, around the islands of St. 
       Vincent and the Grenadines, artisanal whaling is a younger
       trade, shaped by the legacies of slavery and colonialism 
       but no less important to the local population. Each 
       culture, Russell Fielding shows, has developed a distinct 
       approach to whaling that preserves key traditions while 
       adapting to threats of scarcity, the requirements of 
       regulation, and a growing awareness of the humane 
       treatment of animals. Yet these strategies struggle to 
       account for the risks of regularly eating meat 
       contaminated with methylmercury and other environmental 
       pollutants introduced from abroad. Fielding considers how 
       these and other factors may change whaling cultures 
       forever, perhaps even bringing an end to this way of life.
