I liked this ... not everyone would ... pretty graphic and gory in places but I like "man against nature" dramas. A true story with lots of detail that did not bore me. Spell-binding non-fiction teaches the real history of Nantucket and the essential whaling industry in the 19th century. As weak and horrible as many humans are... we are an amazing species when it comes to survival.
