Autorenporträt
Jack's first book (Swim Wild) was published by Hodder and Stoughton imprint, Yellow Kite Books. The story followed Jack's world-first swims with his two older brothers. Together they became the first people to swim across two maelstroms, in Norway, fuelled by being equally at odds with our urban nine-to-fives. They also swam the full 90 mile length of the River Eden, in Cumbria, England. The Machine is Jack's debut in Fiction. --- www.jackdouglashudson.co.uk
