Here's a typical sentence showing the granularity of this biography: "Richard Lathers called, the easier to do because he was staying with Mrs. Thurston on Bond Street." (p. 803) Of course it's easier! Seriously, Lathers, Thurston, what they to Melville or Melville to them? What is the importance of Bond Street? Parker is giving us almost everything known about the Melville family and its friends and acquaintances.
