Tassie's Whale Boys

		(0 reviews)

Tassie's whale boys were the one hundred and thirty two young men, mostly from Hobart and surrounds in Tasmania, who signed up to join Norway's harpoon and factory ships in their bloody harvest of blue whales in the frigid Ross Sea in the 1920's. While some returned for a further season, the reality of the work of turning blue whales into barrels of oil was more than enough for most. This is the story of their experience whaling in Antarctic waters.

This is a USED book; it is in generally very good condition but has a small tan mark on the outer edge of the page block. Please contact the bookshop, Just Tassie Books at The Book Cellar, if you require additional detailed photos and description of condition before purchasing.
