<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>While Nantucket has long enjoyed an illustrious position in America s whaling history, Cape Cod s contribution to the industry is relatively unknown. Yet, it was a Cape Codder who taught the Nantucketers how to hunt whales. In Cape Cod Shore Whaling, authors Duncan Oliver and John Braginton-Smith uncover Cape Cod s integral role in shaping whalefishery, which began along the Cape s sandy shores and evolved into the far-flung whaling expeditions that drove Nantucket s economy into the nineteenth century. Drawing on rare documents never before published, whaling journals, and diaries, Oliver and Braginton-Smith recreate a bygone age when men fought one another for rights to the sea."
