Written by: Herman Melville

As most students, I read Moby Dick when I was in school. I read it then because I had to with an immature mind; I read it this time for the enjoyment of the book now mindful of the lessons taught. Yes, at times the book was too detailed. For example, I know more of the anatomy of the sperm whale than I ever needed to know. However, the book contains the most beautiful prose I have ever read and contains lesson we should all heed.
