There’s a part of Moby Dick where he goes through the steps of what they do once they manage to kill a whale.
It’s fascinating, well-detailed, and just something I never thought about before. If I remember right, they can’t even get it up on the deck but instead have to tow it behind them while they drain the oil. Really fits the book too.
There’s also some very satisfying passages of checking and fixing a motorcycle in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintanance. Makes sense, I know, but again, it fits the purpose of the book.
