This 1912 collection of eight short stories set in the South Pacific features the wealthy merchant adventurer Captain David Grief, a sun-bronzed hero as apt to solve his problems with brains as he is with brawn. He encounters natives, pirates, and colonists during his dangerous journeys.
Про автора
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.
