The journal entries of my friend’s great great great grandpa. It was entertaining. Not something I would ever pick up, but I learned a lot about whaling! Cool to read while in the “sandwich islands.”

The exciting story of a young boy as he works onboard a whaling ship in the mid 1800's. The prose is simply written, quickly read, and thoroughly enjoyed.
