Publisher's Synopsis

""A Year With A Whaler"" is a memoir written by Walter Noble Burns in 1913. The book chronicles the author's experiences during a year-long voyage on a whaling ship in the early 20th century. Burns vividly describes the harsh conditions of life at sea, the camaraderie among the crew, and the thrill of the hunt as they pursue the elusive whales. He also provides insight into the economic and cultural significance of the whaling industry at the time. The book is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era and a testament to the bravery and resilience of the men who worked on these ships.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
