In 1820, the whaleship Essex was attacked by an enraged sperm whale and sank, far out in the Pacific. The event set in train one of the most dramatic sea stories of all time and inspired Melville to write Moby Dick. Now, following the discovery of an hitherto unknown account by one of the survivors, the last voyage of the Essex comes to life again. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
