The <a href="https://www.softcover.io/">Softcover</a> publishing platform
was designed mainly for ebooks like the
<a href="https://railstutorial.org/book"><em>Ruby on Rails Tutorial</em>
book</a> and <a href="https://learnenough.com/html"><em>Learn Enough
HTML to Be Dangerous</em></a>, but it's also good for making more
traditional books, such as the novel <em>Moby-Dick</em> by Herman
Melville (sometimes written as <em>Moby Dick</em>). We present below a
short and affectionately irreverent book report on this classic of
American literature.

<em>Moby-Dick</em></a>
by Herman Melville begins with these immortal words:
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
<span>Call me Ishmael.</span> Some years ago–never mind how long
precisely–having little or no money in my purse, and nothing
particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a
little and see the watery part of the world. It is a way I have of
driving off the spleen and regulating the circulation.
</p>
</blockquote>
<p>
After driving off his spleen (which <em>can't</em> be good for you),
Ishmael then goes on in much the same vein for approximately one
jillion pages. The only thing bigger than Moby Dick (who—<em>spoiler
alert!</em>—is a giant white whale) is the book itself.
