Before electricity, before petroleum, the entire industrialized world ran on something that swam. This is the full story of the American whaling industry — from the first indigenous hunters who figured out it was even possible, to the Quaker merchant families who built an empire on a tiny island off Cape Cod, to the men who risked everything in small wooden boats against animals the size of city buses in the middle of the open ocean.
We cover the rise of Nantucket and New Bedford, the architecture of a floating factory, the disaster of the Essex, the world that whale oil built, the women left behind, the culture of the forecastle, the Arctic disaster of 1871, and the single oil well in Pennsylvania that ended it all almost overnight.
A complete, immersive history told from beginning to end. Best experienced with headphones in a dark room, it's perfect story for sleep
