So beautiful and rich with stories! Nantucketers became famous around the world for their whaling.Β The island was even mentioned in Herman Melvilleβs famous American novel Moby-Dick; The specific word or meaning which was translated into Nantucket has been lost to history, but most believe it meant something like βin the midst of watersβ or βfar away islandβ.Β Today over nine hundred buildings built from 1750 to 1850 are still in everyday use on Nantucket, the largest such collection in the United States and one that affords visitors and residents the extraordinary experience of walking streets substantially unchanged in the last two hundred years.Β
