Paperback. Zustand: Good. On the morning of November 20, 1820, in the Pacific Ocean, an enraged sperm whale rammed the Nantucket whaler Essex. As the boat began to sink, her crew of thirty had time only to collect some bread and water before pulling away in three frail open boats. Without charts, alone on the open seas, and thousands of miles from any known land, the sailors began their terrifying journey of survival. Ninety days later, after much suffering and death by starvation, intense heat, and dehydration, only eight men survived to reach land. One of them was Owen Chase, first mate of the ill-fated ship, whose account of the long and perilous journey has become a classic of endurance and human courage. The elements of his tale inspired Herman Melville (who was born the year the Essex sank) to write the classic Moby Dick. A gallant saga of the sea, this riveting narration of life and death, of man against the deep, will enthrall readers. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A celebration of the unique voices of women writers in American literature, this comprehensive catalogue comprises some 100 works by 72 authors, covering the varied genres pursued by women: poetry, and travel journals, romantic novels, and history books. Many of the volumes are rare, reflecting the fact that the seventeenth-century publications were often read to tatters. Some later works, such as those by the Grimke sisters and Emma Southworth, were banned. Others, such as Charlotte Gilman's short story 'The Yellow Wall Paper'(1892) and Harriet Jacob's autobiography, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (1861), were only recently 'discovered' by an appreciative feminist audience. Providing a window into the growth of spirit and stature that occurred as women gradually took their place as professional writers, this catalogue accompanied an exhibition that took place at the Grolier Club from March 11 through May 2, 1998.…
