The recent centenary of Herman Melville created renewed interest in his famous sea stories.
“Melville wove human element and natural setting into recitals which aroused the enthusiasm of critics and sent a thrill of delight through the reading public when first published, and which both for form and matter have ever since held rank as classics in the literature of travel.”–Boston Herald.
