The Arion Press Moby-Dick, published in 1979 in a limited edition
of 250 copies, has been hailed as a modern masterpiece of
bookmaking. It was hand set under the supervision of one of
America's finest book designers and printers. The initial letters
that begin each chapter were designed especially for this book and
christened Leviathan. The illustrations, of places, creatures,
objects or tools, and processes connected with nineteenth-century
whaling, are original boxwood engravings by Massachusetts artist
Barry Moser. The text of Moby-Dick used in this edition is based on
that used in the critical edition of Melville's works published by
the Northwestern University Press and the Newberry Library.
Now this magnificently typeset and illustrated edition of the great
American novel is available for all lovers of beautiful books. This
luxurious edition of Moby Dick is limited to 750 numbered copies.
It is bound in cloth and slipcased in a cloth-covered box. The text
is printed in two colors throughout on a 75-pound beautifully
textured paper.
