The cover art is almost the only thing that warrants mention about this edition.
Its abridged, and "enriched" by the addition of some supplemental material in the middle of the book. Some of it is moderately interesting.
But the cover art? A left pegged Ahab screaming with harpoon in hand. What is he waiting for? Why is he facing the viewer when Moby Dick clearly is behind him and going down . I want to scream "turn around you freak!"
The book is abridged and goofy which is not a formula for success.
1975? I was out of college 3 years, working in manufacturing for my father, married and living in our first home.
Nelson Rockefeller was vice president, and if I had the ability to choose how and when and who I could be, I would choose to be Nelson Rockefeller.....
