If you're interested in more depth, a great book to read is Away Off Shore, written by Nathaniel Philbrick. It's a very well written and readable history of Nantucket.
- lsniddy 11y agoalso, Philbrick's "In the heart of the sea", about to be released as a movie on Dec 11, is an excellent read and an amazing story

- dfc 11y agoI think you will find that one of the nice things about HN is that most people have read or skimmed the linked article before commenting. The book is explicitly mentioned in the second paragraph of the article and is alluded to in the epigraph of the article highlighting the upcoming release of the movie with the same title.
