The first of a two-volume project, this book by a lifelong scholar of Melville's life, works, and milieu pinpoints the facts of Melville's life with great accuracy and completeness. Melville here appears amid the all-too-human hopes and anxieties that inspired and ensnared him during his early career, when he passed from the status of America's first literary symbol to that of a still-young man who dared to write Shakespearean prose. 40 illustrations.
