About this ebook:
En gang var sjømonstrene en naturlig del av kart og naturhistoriske beretninger. Folk som dro til havs, kunne møte de mest marerittaktige uhyrer i bølgene. Det mangeøyde havsvinet spredte skrekk rundt Island, monstre med lysende øyne raste i bølgene ved Norskekysten, og utenfor Bergen risikerte man å bli angrepet av sjøormen, som spiste kalver og griser hele. Men monstrene kunne også være nyttige: Havmennesker kunne sløyes og kokes til tran, hvalens ribbein var reisverk for hus, og en blekksprut kunne fylle opp tønnevis med blekk. I dag er monstrene borte og glemt, eller forvandlet til velkjent fauna. Historiker, forfatter og professor Erling Sandmo forteller her om tjue av havets herskere og om hvordan de til slutt forsvant ned i dypet for godt, idet alle våre frykteligste fantasier bleknet til vitenskapelige sannheter, eller ble forvandlet til myter og røverhistorier.
