A deeply influential novel from one of America's greatest authors, White-Jacket presents a view of life aboard a 19th-century navy ship that is equal parts humorous and sobering. Published a year before his masterpiece Moby-Dick, White-Jacket is based on Herman Melville's own experiences aboard the USS United States from 1843 to 1844.

Surprisingly engrossing!
Revisado: 05-07-22
This is not my usual cup of tea. I’ve read Melville in the past, but have always found him sort of… well, flat. But a friend of mine recommended this book and I thought I’d give it a try. Wow! Listening to Melville performed by a narrator who really gets it is a totally different experience! I never realized Melville could be exciting and engrossing and (dare I say it?) funny. I have a whole new appreciation of Herman Melville now. Who knows? Maybe I’ll even have to listen to Moby Dick one of these days. I’m so glad this audiobook was recommended to me!
