SUMMARY:Whaling in New England
DESCRIPTION:Whaling in New England \nThursday\, May 9th\, 4pm \nMany different forms of whaling have been used in Cape Cod. Drift\, shore\, herding\, and artic whaling have all been practiced at one time or another. Each specific form of whaling has a small history connected to it. In the early 1800s whaling was among the most profitable enterprises in United States\, second only to textiles. It remained strong for six decades. The reason why whale products are so valuable as well as the rationale as to why the whaling center moved from first from Nantucket\, then to Wellfleet\, then to New Bedford and eventually to Provincetown will be told. Retelling the storied lives of several successful Cape Cod whaling captains make the session come alive. \n$20 Non-Member/$10 Members; or donation based ticket. Light Refreshments Served. \nRegister Here\nShort Biography of Dr. Michael Pregot \nDr. Pregot has spent over a half of a century in the field of education.
