Ishmael, the novel's storyteller, went to sea on a whaling ship's called the prquod. The ship's captain, Ahab, had lost a leg when his ship was attacked by a great white whale called Moby Dick on his last voyage. Ahab told his men that the purpose of their voyage was to hunt and kill Moby Dick , and he offered a gold coin to the first sailor who saw him.
The pequod sailed round the continent of Africa into the Indian Ocean. Whenever they met other ships which had been whaling in the area, Ahab asked their captains if they had seen Moby Dick . A sailor from one of these ships predicted that anyone who tried to kill Moby Dick would die. After this, there were many accidents on the Pequod , but nothing stopped Ahab. He was determined to kill whe whale which he thought of as his enemy.
Suddenly, a storm hit the Pequod and one of the sailors fell to his death from the ship . Soon after this , they saw Moby Dick and Ahab sent out men armed with harpoons in a small boat, but the whale destroyed the boat. The next day, more boats were sent out and , although a harpoon hit the whale, Moby Dick was strong enough to attack the Peqoud. On the third day, boats were sent out again and this time the whale rammed and sank the ship . Captain Ahab was pulled out on a harpoon rope and died attached to the whale. The boat sank and all the crew drowned except Ishmael, who held onto some floating wood. He was rescued by another whaling ship and lived to tell the story
