From the author of The Call of the Wild and White Fang comes this gripping tale of grotesque characters and the unforgiving sea. Inspired by a freighter voyage that Jack London took in 1912 and brimming with action, The Mutiny of the Elsinore is the account of an eventful passage around Cape Horn in the last days of the sailing ship.
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.
