Hardcover. Sag Harbor NY, Permanent Press, 1st, 1998, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. SIGNED BY AUTHOR: "Best wishes, Larry Duberstein" on front fly leaf. Herman Melville, author of that famous first line, "Call me Ishmael," is best known for his masterpiece, Moby Dick. He wrote a few other works that have garnered literary attention, but after completing Moby Dick in 1851, he faded into obscurity (at least during his lifetime). Duberstein attempts to re-create Melville's life after he wrote his great novel. The book takes place mainly in 1882 while Melville is an inspector of customs in New York City. Dissatisfied with wife Elizabeth even though he appreciates her taking care of the house and the children, Melville has an affair with a woman named Cora (entirely fictional) whom he meets while on the job. Nonetheless, Duberstein's portrait of late-19th-century Manhattan is a wonder, rife with precise period detail and elegant prose. Clean copy.

Hardcover. NY, Alfred A Knopf, 1st, 1995, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. The tale of a 17th-Century American girl who ends up an emperor's mistress in India. Hannah Easton, born in 1670 in the forests of Massachusetts, at age 15 moves to Salem with adoptive parents after her father dies of a bee sting and her mother - during the French and Indian War-runs off with a lover from the Nipmuc tribe. Having witnessed scalpings and worse, and harboring the terrible secret of her mother's having gone over to the ``barbarians,'' Hannah is a deeper well than most young girls, suffering trance-like illnesses but also excelling at needlework - including the surgical variety, learned in the war. Her oddnesses, though, are no impediment to marriage with the dashing adventurer Gabriel Legge, who takes her first to England, then to India, where Gabriel joins the East India Company before going independent as a pirate - a calling that will bring him fame and wealth, but also, at last, death.
