This is the story that was the inspiration for Melville writing Moby Dick.

I read “Two Years Before the Mast” when I was young, my parents had many old books. I don’t think I read any Melville. which is my loss.
Thanks, LonePalm.
Saving for later.
I will read Heart of the Sea for my next vacation book.
