Herman Melville
346 cryptograms in the catalog, every one taken from Herman Melville’s own writing rather than from a quotation list.
Moby-Dick, and very little else. Melville's sentences run long and turn several times before they finish, so the ones selected here are the shorter turns rather than the famous paragraphs.

They average 73.3 letters over 19 distinct ones, with 4 letters appearing exactly once, which are the letters a frequency count cannot help you with. 16.5% carry an apostrophe, which hands over a letter outright.
