Revenge of the Whale: The True Story of the Whaleship Essex (Boston Globe-Horn Book Honors (Awards))
Revenge of the Whale The True Story of the Whaleship Essex - Boston Globe-Horn Book Honors Awards
Author: Nat Philbrick, Nathaniel Philbrick
Philbrick has carefully adapted and abridged his adult title, In the Heart of the Sea. He tells the story of the Nantucket whaleship Essex, which sank in the Pacific in November 1820, after being deliberately rammed twice by an apparently enraged sperm whale. . . . With this masterful adaptation, Philbrick's work fills a void.
