Renowned American ecologist and zoologist Carl Safina embarks on a journey following albatrosses in the hopes that they will reveal their world to him. His guide on this journey is a very real albatross named Amelia. Scientists learn about her movements thanks to a transmitter attached to her, which regularly reports her location.

Before our eyes, a dramatic and poetic story of struggle and hope, exceptional endurance and resilience unfolds. In his quest to learn more about albatrosses, the author encounters many species of wildlife that inhabit the ocean. Safina manages not only to see the world they inhabit but also to see it through their eyes. With Amelia, we travel through space and time, penetrating the remote and inaccessible habitats of the albatrosses.
