The Wreck of the Whaleship Essex: The History of the Shipwreck That Inspired Moby Dick
Description:
In 1820, a sperm whale attacked and sunk the Whaleship Essex. 2000 miles off the coast of South America, the crew knew it would be a true feat to survive and make it to shore--any shore.
It's story became legendary; Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote about it; Edgar Allen Poe incorporated details of it in his only novel; and, most notoriously of them all, it served as the inspiration for Herman Melville's Moby Dick.
This account retraces the history of one of the most famous shipwrecks of all time.
