Published in 1902, this novel, set in old San Francisco Bay, follows the adventures of the Frisco Kid, a resourceful youth who makes his way in the world by means not always entirely legal. London based much of the novel on his own experiences growing up, known as a dangerous bay pirate.
Об авторе
Jack London (1876-1916) was born in San Francisco, the illegitimate son of a music teacher whose lover spurned her after she refused an abortion. His writings dealt with his social activism and care for the worker. Largely self-educated, London became a sailor, a hobo, a gold miner, and a socialist—all of which would find their way into his fiction.
