Book Descriptions:

In this third volume of In Those Days, Harper shares stories of the rise and fall of the whaling industry in the Eastern Canadian Arctic. Along with first-hand accounts from sailing crew journals and dozens of rare, historical photographs, this collection includes the myth of the Octavius--a ship that drifted for 12 years with a frozen crew--encounters between sailors and Inuit, tales of the harrowing hazing rituals suffered by first-time crewmembers, and much more.
