A Son of the Sun Annotated

By: London, Jack

Engaging, environmental, and activity filled- - yet hard to get up to this point - the eight short stories in Jack London's A Son of the Sun place on the exciting adventures of Captain David Grief in the risky and outlandish South Seas. Skipper Grief experiences the swashbucklers, frauds, privateers, and entrepreneurs who followed the case of their provincial archetypes and misused the islands and their assets right off the bat in the 20th century. Roused by London's own journey through the South Seas on board his independent yacht, the Snark, these accounts paint a beautiful - and now and again sickening - image of the far-off South Pacific.
