this is my collection of editions of Herman Melville's Moby-Dick,
assembled over a more than a decade, spanning more than 100 years of book making.

Will there exist, one hundred years from now, such a collection of electronic MOBY-DICK editions?For about 15 years I have been collecting editions of Herman Melville's Moby Dick. I committed to displaying some of my collection in 2011 at the Main Library at the SUNY Albany campus. To facilitate that, this blog was created, the process of blogging helped me organize my thoughts and the sections and editions. Since then, I have seen the merit of continuing the blog, highlighting the collection in varying ways.
