Moby Dick By Herman Melville is truly an amazing book. It has been read by almost everyone and if you have not read it you are missing out on a memorable piece of american literature. It has been around forever and is considerable. the book is interesting throughout but is a little slow for a short part. It is action packed and exhilarating.
Moby Dick is told through the eyes of a man who was looking for a job. He soon finds one and is in for the adventure of a lifetime. After he meets capt. Ahab he soon realizes that this white whale he is talking about has become an obsession of of the captain. And he knows the are not going home until it is killed. After hundreds of days at sea they find the great beast that made off with Ahab's leg during their last encounter. After fighting for hours the whale had broken all but one row boat. this happened again. But on the third encounter the ship and its mates were in for trouble.
The whale rams the ship and sinks the great ship but it did not go down with its ship. A loose rope from the other end of a harpoon rope and wrapped around Captain Ahab and he went away with his enemy.
So this book is great from font to cover and i would recommend it to anyone who is interested.
