Penguins, among the most delightful creatures in the world, are also among the most vulnerable. The fragile status of most penguin populations today mirrors the troubled condition of the southern oceans, as well as larger marine conservation problems: climate change, pollution, and fisheries mismanagement.

This book should give a wide-ranging overview of the North Estonian Klint as a nature monument symbolizing Estonian national identity, and not only from a geological-geographical point of view but also as a nature monument adding value to human living environment. Rocks and land, forest and the sea, economy and settlement history, people and tradition -- the Baltic Klint has left its clear-cut traces on all that in North Estonia.
