About this ebook
The Squashed edition of Moby-Dick by Herman Melville. Abridged from the original text to read in an hour or so.
Squashed editions are precise abridgements - the original ideas, in their own words, the full beam of the book, the quotable quotes and all the famous lines, but neatly honed down to the length of a readable short story.
"Like reading the bible without all the begats" - Prof. Jim Curtis
