"Hatënotha’, an Epitaph of Love and the American Indian” is offered as a tribute to Native Americans.

Before this excerpt, we learn of a Seneca father traveling with his daughters to Southampton, Long Island, to meet the Shinnecock “Whale Warriors”. Hatënotha’, whose name translates to, “One Who Sings”, meets Gerhardt Weiß. From their Love, Abigail “White” is born. Abbie will become the mother of Isaac Abram, the hero son of Abraham (Abie) Abram, who will defeat Evil in this world.

“Death to Moby Dick, a Love Story” is the sequel to Melville’s “Moby Dick”.
