Book Reviews of The Undersea World of Wyland

Book Review: Amazing Wyland
Summary: 5 Stars

Wyland is Amazing. Just incredible. That's all I can say as I flip through this beautiful coffee table book. It has some nice info on Wyland about his love for ocean life-whales and dolphins especially, and what inspired him to help protect the creatures he loves the most in life by painting them(on the walls of buildings) to introduce his message to the public eye. That message is to clean and preserve our oceans so all life on earth-including mankind can survive in the future. There is a whole section devoted to his "whaling walls" up to whaling wall#77. His goal was to paint 100 walls by the year 2011. But he has finished ahead of schedule as completing his 100th wall in 2008 at the Beiijing Olympics in China(Not included in this book, since it's out of date). This book contains many of his beautiful paintings(no sculptures at all)that leave you in awe. There also are many interresting, meaningful,and unique quotes said by different well-know people throughout the book. There is a chart included with descriptions of different ocean animals and their sizes, some pages on details of his individual paintings, and also a Wyland Gallery directory throughout the U.S. Overall, a very nice book. It's a masterpiece of its own!
