The Portuguese in American Whaling 1765-1927
Written by Donald Warrin
It is gratifying that So Ends This Day not only undertakes a grand, historical overview of the Islands' involvement in the blubber-hunting business, but also characterizes many of the individual personalities, events, circumstances, and anecdotes that reveal the complexity of the whaling industry as a whole and the human character of Azorean and Cape Verdean involvement in it.
