Billy Budd:bTwo Novels. Stories. Poems  aNew York:bThe Viking Press,c1952.  a746 p.10an/29174  a"The most comprehensive Melville anthology ever published" was The Progressive magazine`s comment on this volume. The editor has chosen and arranged selections from Melville`s writings, augmented by pertinent Melville letters, and linked by editorial comment, to supply in effect a biography of Melville as well as a full representation of his work. Moby Dick, easily available in numerous editions, has been omitted to allow a much more ample choice of other less available works, including the complete text of Typee and Billy Budd. In short, this volume is the ideal assortment to supplement Moby Dick.1 aLeyda J4edt20260805124445.0
