</div><div><span style="color:rgb(74,74,74);font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12px;line-height:21.59375px">Whaling was an important economic enterprise in the Colonial era and quickly expanded to the Pacific after American Independence. The sheer number of Yankee ships and men involved in the industry in the 19th century gives an indication of the impact of the business on whale populations, on local cultural practices, and on island ecosystems: more than 2500 New England vessels made some 12,000 voyages to the Pacific with over 300,000 men on board. One of the best-documented U.S. industries in the 19th century, whale hunters left a record of environmental change, as well as an enduring legacy of art and literature.</span><br>
