Chapter 14: Nantucket

[marphilly]

Ishmael and Queequeeg finally arrive at Nantucket. This short chapter describes the island and its natives, natural seamen according to the book, in great detail. There are many exaggerated legends describing how difficult life is on the island. "But these extravaganzas only show that Nantucket is no Illinois."
