New Bedford
New Bedford est une ville du Comté de Bristol, Massachusetts, située à environ 82 km au sud de Boston, 45 km au Sud-Est de Providence et 19 km à l'est de Fall River. Au recensement de 2000, la population s'élevait à 93 768 personnes (93 102 au recensement de 2005). Elle est surnommée « The Whaling City » (La ville baleinière), car il s'agissait de l'un des plus importants ports de pêche à la baleine.
C'est à New Bedford que commence Moby Dick d'Herman Melville, et d'où Ishmaël, le narrateur du roman, s'embarque pour Nantucket en compagnie du harponneur Queequeg.
