Publisher Description: In this classic seafaring adventure tale by Herman Melville, we are introduced to the wandering sailor Ishmael, as he meets and befriends a cannibal named Queequeg. Then, the two begin a thrilling voyage on the Pequod, a whaling ship commanded by the brooding madman, Captain Ahab, whose sole obsession is the destruction of the ferocious white whale, Moby Dick, who previously bit off his leg and sank his ship. Join us for an epic exploration into faith, character, and revenge as we witness the fight for survival and control between man and beast. |
