He tells his story, wich is about a 15 year. When he was that age he left school and started working. He travelled to England in a ship. There, he discovered his passion for the ocean. For that reason, he decided to become a harpooner of a ship called "Pequod". The "Pequod" sailed and all the adventure began.
Personal Opinion
I think that this book is a book hat shows us the consequences of hunting whales. How people get obssesed with hunting whales and sometimes people died hunting them. This book also, tells us the harpooners daily life, how hard it can be. I think that the story is very well told, but I think that it's a bit repetitive, because it is all about hunting whales.
