Description
Jack London is well-known for his novels. Lesser-known is the fact that he was a prolific photographer, whose camera was his inseparable companion in adventures all over the world. Here, for the first time, is an exploration of Jack London the photographer, merging his visual reportage with his narratives to form a more complete picture of the artist. London witnessed and documented many of the key events of his era - the Russo-Japanese War, the San Francisco earthquake and the incredible Cruise of the Snark - and his photographs of these cataclysms are included here in over 70 reproductions and introduced by Davide Sapienza. The book is an adventurous journey through the world of Jack London.
