Herman Melvilles classic about one mans obsession with the white whale is filled with philosophy, marine biology, history, adventure, and even humor. William Hootkins voice is superb for the telling of this great sea story, maintaining the attention of listeners even through some of the less adventurous parts. His intonations convey Ishmaels and Captain Ahabs thoughts in a way that helps listeners understand them and their times. Ishmael becomes an actual person and the Captains madness is real. The individual personalities of each crew member is apparent. Through Hootkins telling, the history of whaling becomes intriguing.
