In a last-ditch effort to win status and success, middle-aged adventurer Bill Conan enters a 30,000-mile single-handed race to sail around the world. This ultimate test of skill, strength, and endurance leads him across the vast expanse of the treacherous Atlantic Ocean, where a sudden change in wind throws him off balance and sends him overboard. Alone in the still, open sea he fights to keep from drowning, knowing it is a fight that he must lose...
But Conan has fallen into the migratory path of a bottle-nosed dolphin named Aka and his tribe. In an exhilarating encounter, they sense Conan's plight, communicate with him, and work to keep him afloat and alive.
A stirring adventure tale, Aka is also an unforgettable portrait of the ancient history of dolphins, their extraordinary traits and abilities, and their eternal friendship with humans.
"A lyrical and intelligent account of both man and dolphin and the relationship they have to the sea and to each other... This book is a requirement for Jones' fans and for those who have yet to cruise the world with Jones." Library Journal
