The book The Story Of The Last Of The Old Whalers, Charles W. Morgan by Marion Dickerman is a detailed account of the history of the Charles W.

The book chronicles the ship's journey from its initial construction in 1841 to its eventual restoration in the 20th century.The author provides an in-depth exploration of the ship's various voyages and the experiences of the sailors who crewed her. The book also delves into the history of the whaling industry in America and the impact it had on the environment and society.Through extensive research, including interviews with former crew members and historians, Dickerman paints a vivid picture of life on board the Charles W. Morgan and the challenges faced by those who worked in the whaling industry.The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in maritime history, whaling, or the preservation of historic vessels.
