George C. Henderson recounts joining Captain C. T. Pedersen on the Herman as they pursue a bowhead in Arctic waters. The crew launches whaleboats, fires bomb and harpoon, and after a perilous fight the whale is killed and hauled aboard, yielding blubber and bone. Pedersen remains a lone American hunter amid a fading whaling era.
