Join the extended voyage of a wooden-hulled American whaler. Lovely engravings. Well written, straightforward, a series of snapshots into daily life, island traditions, diet, sport, nature and fashion. Every chapter begins with a list of topics so you can pick and choose. I recommend this book to readers interested in the age of sail who want to learn more about life off the ship.
