Dallas Murphy's dispatches from the venerable research vessel "Knorr," are beautifully crafted, slyly entertaining and always informative. The "Knorr" is a unique ship, able to pursue varied oceanographic assignments in near and faraway waters, and Murphy, who feels the pitch of the sea in his soul, is her ideal spokesperson. Murphy is a versatile and talented writer, and his reports in TO THE DENMARK STRAIT blend deep ocean science, shipboard routines and philosophical reflections in prose that borders on poetry.
