for true adventures it dosnt get much better than In the Heart of Sea, about tje whale ship Essex. The original version, by the first mate of tje ship was the inspiration for Moby Dick.
The movie version came out a few years ago... also great.
words cannot describe this crazy two year long adventure at sea (actually two seas... the atlantic and pacific)by these 19th century Nantucket sailors. just wow! and yes a real whale actually sank their ship!
