Reviews

For those interested in the specific nature of American whaling, from the logistics of being a boat steerer to the collection of the oil, this account is a perfect first-hand tale of how this was accomplished. Also, if interested in the dynamics of shipboard life in the nineteenth century, Haley's account provides tales of laughter, danger, and maritime culture and activity. - Nautical Research Journal
