"The Strength of the Strong" is a 1914 fiction novel by American writer Jack London. A powerful story of unwavering friendship set in a fantastical dystopia, this unique novel is not to be missed by lovers and collectors of London's wonderful work, and it would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf. Contents include: "The Heathen", "The Strength of the Strong", "South of the Slot", "The Unparalleled Invasion", "The Enemy of All the World", "The Dream of Debs", "The Sea Farmer", and "Samuel". London (1876 - 1916), commonly known as Jack London, was an American journalist, social activist, and novelist. He was an early pioneer of commercial magazine fiction, becoming one of the first globally-famous celebrity writers who were able to earn a large amount of money from their writing. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
Autorenporträt
John Griffith Chaney, nascido em São Francisco, no 12 de janeiro de 1876 na Califórnia, morreu a 22 de novembro de 1916 no seu Beauty Ranch. Autor, jornalista e ativista social norte-americano com referências marxistas, pioneiro na sua era, fez então parte do novo mundo das revistas comerciais de ficção, tendo sido um dos primeiros romancistas a obter celebridade mundial através das suas estórias, além de uma grande fortuna. Jack London (seu pseudónimo), é um dos mais importantes marcos da literatura norte-americana do fim do século XIX e princípio do século XX. Escreveu centenas de contos, entre eles alguns visionários e magistrais que marcaram os caminhos da literatura ocidental.
