193851651scNew York: Bonanza Books 1938. Octavo blue cloth hardcover 179 pp. Very Good in a Very Good dust jacket. From dust jacket: In the days when New Bedford led the world as the center of the whaling industry the harbor was filled with whaling ships returned from the seven seas and the wharfts were alive with whalemen. Albert Cook Church recalls those times. Seafaring folk were his forebears the New Bedford waterfront was his boyhood playground; inevitably his first interest was whaling. With a knack for photography and with extraordinary foresight he dliberately set out to assemble a pictorial record of everything to do with the whaling industry. He photographed all that caught his interest and even sent cameras and equipment to sea with ships’ officers when he was unable to go himself. Many pictures were lost but many came back to become part of the most remarkable assemblage of whaling photographs ever brought together. It is from this unique collection of over 40000 negatives and prints that this record is made. Bonanza Books, (1938). hardcover books
