Publisher's Synopsis
Jack London books by SeaWolf Press were selected for sale by the Jack London Museum.
A beautfiul version with the first edition cover and original illustration. This edition is part of the 100th Anniversary Collection honoring the 100th anniversary of Jack London's death in 1916.
Published after his death, this is one of two dog stories that London wrote set in the South Pacific. The story is told through the eyes of Jerry, an Irish terrier. The dog is given to the seafaring Captain Van Horn and his life gets turned upside down. Not a book for young readers, the book is full of the racist language of the times in describing the treatment of the black islanders by the white colonial traders.
