can be hired on a whaling ship. However, she soon discovers that her captain did not go to sea to return
with a cargo of whale meat and blubber. Captain Ahab longs for revenge.
On one of his previous hunts, he came across a majestic white whale, which cost him both his boat and his leg.
And so begins a spectacular maritime adventure, when the ship's crew measures not only the depth of the seas,
but also the human soul. In a fascinating encounter with the uncrowned king of the oceans, there is only one winner.
The White Whale is one of the most exciting adventure novels and one of the crowning works of American literature.
