Rezensionen

In bold, declarative sentences, Ken Brandt states the facts of Jack London's life by tying them together in a thrilling and economical narrative. It should be the first biography anyone consults.', Jay Williams, author of the three-volume 'Author Under Sail: The Imagination of Jack London' (2014) and general editor of 'The Complete Works of Jack London' (forthcoming)
