What Members Thought
This book was not at all what I expected it to be. I of course knew in the abstract that it was about the battle between Captain Ahab and the white whale, but I didn't realize how little of the book that accounted for, and that the majority of this tome is a treatise on whales and whaling. I listened to the book and even though the reading by William Hootkins was fabulous, I found myself so deadened by the sermonizing that even when there was action, I almost missed it.
