Description
In this exciting and thought-provoking historical look at a massive Arctic sea wreck, Peter Nichols traces the dramatic end of the whale oil industry in the 1870s. Nichols anchors his narrative of adventurous seamen and ambitious businessmen (most notably Quaker brothers George and Matthew Howland) by focusing on William Fish Williams, the son of a whaling captain, who at the age of 12 was on one of the ships that crashed in the frozen northern waters.
