AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"To his credit, Mr. Parker has no psychoanalytic or other theory to explain either Melville's life or his writing; his critical commentary on the novels is no more or less than that of a good reader who knows them by heart....The...extravagance of detail in this first [volume] is likely to overwhelm any but the most heroic of Melvilleans; yet in its overreaching way it is worthy of the author of MOBY-DICK..."Parker, Hershel is the author of 'Herman Melville A Biography 1819-1851' with ISBN 9780801854286 and ISBN 0801854288.
