I know some people really dislike that book and say it is overrated, but I love it.

I first read it when I was eight. I re-read it every few years. I’ve been to his house in Western Massachusetts...honeymooned on Nantucket...

Crazy life, the whaling life.

Sounds like it’s time for me to also read Moby Dick, wonder if it’s still in print or if I would need to look for a second-hand copy.

I’ll check Amazon...

btw, Captain Cooks Journals are interesting reading.
