http://schema.org/description
- ""This is the story of the rise of that unique nautical island people who were to become masters of the whaling capital of the world - Nantucket. It tells of the humble beginnings of those who pioneered 'with love and skillets' and were said to have salt water in their veins and whale oil in their joints; of their fishing and sheep-shearing economies; of their sailboat voyaging, their rain-barrel water supplies and space-saving furniture; and of their boast's crew cottages and homey lean-to dwellings. The book forms a record of the Nantucketers' 17th and early-18th century type of British civilization, medieval in some aspects, like town planning and building methods, which persisted in considerable degree down to the Victorian era."--Book jacket."
