عن المؤلف
Jack London, whose birth name was John Griffith Chaney, was born in San Francisco, United States, in 1876, the son of an astrologer and a music teacher. London had a brief existence but lived it intensely and wrote about what he experienced. His books have three distinct settings: the most appreciated is undoubtedly the Gold Rush in Alaska, followed by the still dazzling islands of the South Pacific, and finally the American socialist (and communist) political scene at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. In these three settings, Jack London experienced the deepest emotions, faced the most deadly risks, and fought the hardest battles. He indeed had much to report and did so intensely, leaving behind numerous works.
