The Cruise Of The Cachalot is a classic adventure novel written by Frank T. Bullen. The book follows the story of a group of whalers who embark on a journey across the world's oceans in search of the elusive sperm whale. The protagonist, Bullen, is a young sailor who joins the crew of the Cachalot, a whaling ship, on its voyage to the Pacific Ocean. The book provides a vivid and detailed account of life aboard a whaling ship, including the dangers and hardships faced by the crew, as well as the excitement of the chase and the thrill of the hunt. The story also explores the relationships between the men on board, their struggles with isolation and loneliness, and their encounters with native peoples and exotic cultures. The Cruise Of The Cachalot is a gripping and exciting tale of adventure on the high seas, and a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era of maritime history.So as MY money was all gone, I was hungry for a ship; and when a long, keen-looking man with a goat-like beard, and mouth stained with dry tobacco-juice, hailed me one afternoon at the street- corner, I answered very promptly, scenting a berth. Lookin' fer a ship, stranger? said he. Yes; do you want a hand? said I, anxiously.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
