Description

No other industry in America's history ever approached whaling for adventure and enterprise. Here, from historian Edouard A. Stackpole are the early Colonial days when boat crews attacked whales near shore through the development of deep-sea whaling by the hardy Quaker whalemen of Nantucket, and on into the adventure-packed century when Yankee whalemen made the world their domain.
