520 3# ‡aPresents brief history of Hebridean whaling activities in Arctic from 1750-1913. Notes that, although commercial Arctic whaling was limited to ports of east coast, Hebridean whaling seems to have coexisted with, and possibly pre-dated, famous ships that sailed from Dundee, Peterhead and Leith. By early 20th century, when last steam whaler had ceased to be active, Hebrideans were continuing ancient whaling tradition.
