A complete reproduction of the rare 1838 edition reprinted for the first time in over one hundred years. This little volume was originally penned by a whaling captain for his son. Irresistibly collectable, this edition featuring 112 original black-and-white plates retains all the charm of the original, including descriptions of successful voyages, whale hunting advice and sailing superstitions."
