While Nantucket has long enjoyed an illustrious position in America's whaling history, Cape Cod's contribution to the industry is relatively unknown. Yet, it was a Cape Codder who taught the Nantucketers how to hunt whales. In Cape Cod Shore Whaling, authors Duncan Oliver and John BragintonSmith uncover Cape Cod's integral role in shaping whalefishery, which began along the Cape's sandy shores and evolved into the farflung whaling expeditions that drove Nantucket's economy into the nineteenth century. Drawing on rare documents never before published, whaling journals, and diaries, Oliver and BragintonSmith recreate a bygone age when men fought one another for rights to the sea.
