The Confidence-Man (Oxford World's Classics)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Like a microcosm of America, the Fidele, a Mississippi steamboat bound for New Orleans, floats downstream without reaching its goal, its passengers all the victims or abusers of trust or confidence. Melville's confidence man--deft, fraudulent, constantly shifting--represents a central symbol of American cultural history.
