About the Author
Herman Melville was born on August 1, 1819. He went on his first sea voyage in 1839 as cabin boy on the St Lawrence bound for Liverpool. He later became a teacher before taking to the seas again on the Achushnet. On this voyage, he abandoned ship and lived among the indigenous people of the Marquesas Islands for some time. This sojourn inspired his books Typee and Omoo which were published to great success. He became close friends with the writer Nathaniel Hawthorne, to whom he dedicated Moby-Dick. Although Moby-Dick was not particularly successful in his lifetime, it is now considered one of the most important American novels of all time. Melville died on September 28, 1891.
