    American Economic History Overview

    • Whaling industry started in Long Island around 1650 and expanded to Nantucket in 1690, with 25 vessels by 1730.

    • Post-war growth saw New Bedford, MA, become a major whaling port with a significant increase in ships over the years.
    • The search for whales expanded to the Arctic in 1849, and San Francisco emerged as a prominent whaling port after the opening of the transcontinental railroad in 1869.
    • Demand for baleen from the Arctic's Bowhead whale increased, while demand for whale oil declined due to the rise of petroleum and kerosene as lantern fuel.
