You Wouldn't Want to Sail on a Whaling Ship!

Cook, Peter

Antram, David

Notes
The year is 1819. You are a 14-year-old boy named Thomas Nickerson, living in Nantucket. It is one of the most important centres of the American whaling industry. You want to fulfill your boyhood dream of becoming a whaler by joining your friends aboard the whaling ship Essex. The Essex is bound for the Pacific Ocean, and a place in history. But you have no idea of the horrors - whale attacks, shipwreck, cannibalism - that lie ahead.
