How did Joseph Smith influence Herman Melville, author of ‘Moby-Dick’?

Poll of the week

What do Joseph Smith Jr. and Herman Melville have in common?

Based on the title of Melville's most famous book, the whale’s size, and Joseph’s impressive harem, they are both obviously compensating for something

One made up fantastic American tales that only deluded followers actually believe happened, the other…nevermind

One is the quintessential great American novelist, the other is the quintessential great American philanderer

Melville actually wrote his famous books, whereas Joseph Smith technically plagiarized from Mormon, Moses, and Abraham

One wrote books that touched the heart of the common man, the other touched a lot of women #TenderMercie
