It's almost certainly too late for this warning but, if you haven't started this yet and haven't read the book before, skip the intro till after you read the book due to spoilers.
I have a Scribner published version with a simple picture of the ocean on the cover. The introduction is only a couple pages long but they felt they had to summarize a bit too much. Just because a book is a classic it doesn't mean that everyone has read it.
