Hello my beloveds! Here is a new Moby Dick Energy for these troubled times. I don't have my podcast mic with me in self-isolation, so the sound quality is not ideal. Apologies! This episode, I speak to Sara David, Digitization Archivist at the Nantucket Historical Association, about that illustrious "elbow of land," its history, and the many many whaling journeys Sara has read about!
SHOW NOTES:
Many thanks to Ilana Weinstein (@ilana_weinstein) for editing this episode.
Music over intro: "Old Paper Houses"
MDE Theme by Noam Hassenfeld.
