DON'T MISS THE MAJOR FILM INSPIRED BY CHASE'S NARRATIVE, IN THE
HEART OF THE SEA On 20 November 1820, just south of the equator,
the whaling ship Essex, spotted and pursued a shoal of sperm
whales. As the crew started harpooning, the largest whale - some 85
feet long - rammed the Essex twice and 'stove in her bows'. What
followed was an epic three-month voyage in open boats across
storm-tossed seas. Only eight men survived, sustained by eating
those who died. This edition includes Owen Chases's famous account,
as well as memoirs by two other crew members and a facsimile of
Herman Melville's notes on Chase's narrative.
