All,

 

  Moby-Dick is a modern novel. This is from chapter 32, "Cetology":

      "BOOK I (Sperm Whale)---This whale, among the English of old [was] known as the Trumpa whale. . . .He is without doubt, the largest inhabitant of the globe; the most formidable of all whales to encounter the most majestic in aspect; and lastly, by far the most valuable in commerce; he being the only creature from which that valuable substance, spermaceti, is obtained. All his peculiarities will, in many other places, be enlarged upon. It is chiefly with his name that I now have to do."

Pardon me, Donald, but I know you have a good sense of humor.
