Written with wonderfully redemptive humor, Moby-Dick is a profound and timeless inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.This edition includes a foreword by Nathaniel Philbrick, author of the phenomenal bestseller In the Heart of the Sea, an introduction by Andrew Delbanco, and Notes and Explanatory Commentary by Tom Quirk.Enriched eBook Features Editor Mary K.
