The story

In 1857, Joel Shore (Robert Taylor) returns to New Bedford, Massachusetts, after three years at sea, and learns that his brother Mark (Stewart Granger), captain of the whaling vessel Nathan Ross, was reported missing from his ship months earlier. Ship owner Asa Worthen (Robert Burton) offers the Nathan Ross to Joel, and although he and Mark were not close, Joel accepts and vows to learn more about his brother's fate. That afternoon, Joel hears a drunken sailor in a pub claim that Mark jumped ship and abandoned his men, and when the sailor's companion confirms the story, Joel strikes him.
