ISBN: 9780810115910 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Unique among Melville's works, Israel Potter was the author's only historical novel, presuming to offer the life history of Revolutionary War figure Israel Potter--based on Potter's own obscure narrative Life and Remarkable Adventures of Israel R. Potter--and featuring characters such as Benjamin Franklin and Ethan Allen. In offering the manuscript to his publisher, Melville assured him, "I engage that the story shall contain nothing of any sort to shock the fastidious.

Wie das behende Ding vor dem Winde lief! Ja, gewiß, sie rollte hie und da, aber das war mehr Spaß! Und kein Windstoß konnte ihr etwas anhaben, wenn sie luvte: mit steifen Spieren steckte sie die Nase in den Wind und schoß durch die Wellen." Herman Melville (1819-1891) war ein amerikanischer...
