PERCIVAL KEENE (Book Thirteen of the Marryat Cycle) by Frederick Marryat
In many ways the book is a refreshing departure from the hero as a cross between Superman and Dudley Do-Right. Keene has flaws. So do we all. But couple that realism with Marryat's unquestioned ability to tell a sea yarn, and you have a very interesting read.

THE CRUISE OF THE CACHALOT: The Story of a New Bedford Whaler
“[The Cruise of the Cachalot] is immense—there is no other word.
I've never read anything that equals it in its deep-sea wonder and mystery; nor do I think that any book before has so completely covered the whole business of whale-fishing, and at the same time given such real and new sea pictures.” - RUDYARD KIPLING
