| book description |

A centenary study of Melvilleâ€™s Billy Budd. Billy Budd, Sailor (An Inside Narrative) is Herman Melvilleâ€™s most-read book after Moby-Dick and is regularly taught in literature courses. A century after publication its textual history and interpretive criticism as a literary artifact continue to evolve. This book traces the bibliography of this evolution through numerous â€œreading,â€ â€œgenetic,â€ and â€œfluidâ€ editions, as well as critical and biographical works illustrating the ranges of approaches to and appreciation of Melvilleâ€™s great unfinished text. Featuring frontispiece illustration by Barry Moser. Â
