Herman Melville
(1819-1891), American author of such famed literary works as
Typee
(1846) and its sequel
Omoo
(1847) also wrote
Moby Dick, or; The Whale
(1851);
Herman Melville was born into an eminent family claiming war heroes and wealthy merchants on 1 August 1819 in New York City, New York State, son of Maria Gansevoort (1791-1872) and Allan Melville (1782-1832).
As a successful import merchant, Allan afforded all the necessary comforts and more to his large family of eight sons and daughters. He loved to tell his children sea-faring tales of terror and adventure, and of places far away. After his death at the age of forty, his wife and children moved to the village of Lansingburg, on the banks of the Hudson River.
In 1835 Melville attended the Albany Classical School for a year, then moved to Pittsfield, Massachusetts to work at the farm of his uncle, gentleman farmer Thomas Melville. It was not long however that Melville travelled back to New York and secured his place as cabin boy on a ship bound for Liverpool, England. Upon return to New York he held various unsatisfying jobs until he next set sail on the whaling ship
Acushnet
in 1841. His stay in the Marquesas Islands (now French Polynesia) with his friend Richard Tobias Greene would provide much fodder for his future novels. First published in England,
Typee
and
Omoo
(1847) are based on Melville's sea-faring adventures and stays in Polynesia and Tahiti. His next novel
Mardi: and A Voyage Thither
(two volumes, 1849) is
'a romance of Polynesian adventure'
, again reflecting much of Melville's own life on ships and the South Seas. Another semi-autobiographical novel
Redburn: His First Voyage
was published
