This book traces the bibliography of this evolution through numerous "reading," "genetic," and "fluid" editions, as well as critical and biographical works illustrating the ranges of approaches to and appreciation of Melville's great unfinished text. Featuring frontispiece illustration by Barry Moser.Author Biography
