| Summary: | This dataset contains a spreadsheet collated from actual Hudson’s Bay Company whaling logbooks between 1799 and 1800. The workbook contains years grouped into three or four years. For example: 1760-1762,1763-1765 and 1766-1779. Each worksheet represents one year and contains two voyages. One outgoing voyage from the UK to Hudson Bay, normally leaving at the end of June, beginning of July, and one return journey leaving Hudson Bay in September and returning to the UK in October. The Supporting Documentation describes the collated data and provides a background to the research.
