In the Heart of the Sea recounts the harrowing true story of the whaleship Essex, which was sunk by a vengeful sperm whale in 1820, leaving its crew to survive adrift for over ninety days in three small boats. Author Nathaniel Philbrick draws on rare documents and detailed insights into the Nantucket whaling tradition to illuminate this infamous maritime disaster. This National Book Award-winning account serves as a compelling foundation for both the acclaimed bestseller and its cinematic adaptation.
