I chose this book based on reviews from the authors peers, not on citizens of Amazon readers. My experience with this book was certainly several than what I looked-for from the reviews.
The exacting promises of old world history, allusions to Greek ancient history and the comparison made to Moby Dick were, as far as I am bothered, far down on the list of what this story is keenly saying. Presentation with segment 4 entitled 'Moses Rathbone', the reader is bewildered into the life of Moses Rathbone, a whaler convex on care full whaling crews of his own sons, and he statistics he will need ample of sons equally according to the story plentiful die or become maimed in the whaling trade. As we enter segment four his 7th partner is brought to his home in the dark of night full to Moses bed warren and left acquaint with. Moses inspects Hepzibah (the new partner) as if he were inspecting propriety position. Since he decides she meets at all his mainstream is he beds her and with she is accepted on in the identical way to all of Moses sons from about age 14 up that very identical night.
Any boys born to Moses plentiful wives are snobbish for the whaling trade, girls put out of sight. Since a partner gets too old to be good propriety position anymore she is shipped off to an Desert island with all the getting on wives that are now pointless to Moses and his sons as propriety position. The pointless wives are housed and provided for for the rest of their lives. Since the youthful are born the boys are full from their mothers ahead they can tread and raised from that point on by the men in the family. All the men lived on the first stupefy of the quarters and the wives on the second stupefy. And so on we go complete the generations not experienced who was the flinch of the young equally the "partner" was prone to all the men.
