Moby-Dick: Illustrated by Rockwell Kent
" One of the strangest and most wonderful books in the world." -- D.H. Lawrence
Spurned by readers and critics after its publication in 1851 and for the rest of Herman Melville's life, Moby-Dick underwent a dramatic reappraisal after his death. During the early years of the 20th century, it came to define the Great American Novel. This spurred and was, in turn, boosted by the 1930 Lakeside Press edition featuring Rockwell Kent's stark pen-and-ink illustrations that captured the drama, beauty, and violence of Melville's masterpiece.
This Top Five Classics edition of Melville's Moby-Dick includes:
All of Rockwell Kent's 270-plus black-and-white illustrations The complete, unabridged text of Melville's classic from his definitive 1851 American edition A glossary of terms A map of the Voyage of the Pequod Detailed biographies of both Melville and KentAn enigmatic tale of the sea, whaling, and obsession, Melville's epic Moby-Dick echoes themes from the Bible and the works of Shakespeare to craft a uniquely American story that continues to fascinate and enthrall today.
