Moby-Dick or, The Whale

Herman Melville’s masterpiece of obsession and the untamed sea, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history—a deluxe edition featuring a Foreword by Nathaniel Philbrick and cover art by Tony Millionaire.

This edition features the Northwestern-Newberry edition of Melville's text.

Moby-Dick still stands as an indisputable literary classic. It is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than whaling lore and legend, Moby-Dick is a haunting, mesmerizing and important social commentary populated with several of the most unforgettable and enduring characters in literature.
