It is called the Shipwreck of the Whaleship Essex, by Owen Chase.
It is the original 1821 narrative of the famed battle between a whale and a ship that inspired Herman Melville's Moby Dick.
(at least that's what it says on the cover)
I like the book and found it amazing that the whale took out the ship....

I only know of one book about a whaling ship sunk by a whale so I'm going to guess "moby dick"
if I'm right, do I get a prize?

the book "Moby Dick" is very loosely based upon the Nantucket whaling ship Essex, which foundered in 1820 after it was attacked by an 80-ton sperm whale 2,000 miles (3,700 km) from the western coast of South America.
