Read the book
In a battle between Jaws and Moby Dick, Moby Dick would likely come out on top due to its larger size and strength. Moby Dick is a massive sperm whale known for its notorious encounters with whaling ships, making it a formidable opponent compared to a great white shark like Jaws.
In "Moby-Dick," the white color of the whale symbolizes various themes such as nature's power and mystery, the unknowable and uncontrollable forces of the world, and the idea of pursuing an elusive goal or obsession. It also represents the complexity and ambiguity of human experience.
The great white whale, Moby Dick, symbolizes nature's power and unpredictability, representing the ultimate challenge and obsession for Captain Ahab. It also embodies themes of revenge, fate, and the destructive forces of obsession in Herman Melville's novel.
Only one way to find out........
Melville "borrowed" the name, and made a slight change in it. It was inspired by a Jeremiah Reynolds article from a New York Knickerbocker Magazine. He used the common name "Dick" in the same way that he could have chosen "Joe" or "Jack" or "Leland" or any other name.

Every book has to start somehow. Moby Dick starts with the story teller introducing himself with, "Call me Ishmael". It is a distinctive and friendly opening line and I believe the name is not used anywhere else in the remainder of the book. Also, the book was written over 150 years ago in a time when literacy was not high and the story tellers art was a much more demanding job for that very reason. The authors of Moby Dick, The Hunchback of Notre Dame and even Frankenstein, place great effort and emphasis into describing a view from a certain perspective or at a certain time of year, or why something is done the way it is done for the benefit of the reader. Don't waste your time challenging it, the book is a classic, sit back, relax and enjoy reading it.

Everything is a "character" in this story about the part that man plays in the universe. The shoreline, the people that are described, the weather, tattoos, the wind, the diversity of places the crew comes from, the sharks, the way the men are situated on the boat , the Pequod, the names of the other vessels, the whales, the coffin, Quequeg and his departure from the living and return, the stars and the heavens, the jobs that each sailor performs that unite to run the entire ship as a whole, the earth, life as seen as a force that travels like paths on our planet the earth as symbolized by the paths taken by the whales in their routes during their lives, all of the emotions and feelings of each man and their importance and what they each contribute to their existance while here on earth. The entire ship and those aboard and off play contributors to the story because they represent all of the forces in nature and man.
Pip dies first, he throws himself over board.
Think about it. We destroyed most of the bison, decimated the American Indians and almost made the whales extinct. And that was before. Just think what we've done since to our natural resources.
The best way to find the way is with a navigator. A GPS system allows users to input their destination and then it maps the directions so you can find the way.
There is no best way. It is whatever you find suitable.
