Publisher Description
When he died in 1891, the author of Moby-Dick was an obscure figure in American literature. This 1921 biography, placing Melville in the context of his Yankee heritage and drawing from his correspondence with Nathaniel Hawthorne, is largely responsible for reassessing Melville’s reputation and restoring him to his rightful place in the literary pantheon.
