Raised in poverty as an illegitimate child, Jack London dropped out of school to support his mother, working in mind-deadening jobs that would foster a lifelong interest in socialism. Brilliant and self-taught, he haunted California's waterside bars, brawling with drunken sailors and learning about love from prostitutes. His lust for adventure took him from the beaches of Hawaii to the gold fields of Alaska, where he experienced firsthand the struggles for survival he would later immortalize in classics like White Fang and The Call of the Wild.

A hard-drinking womanizer with children to support, Jack London was no stranger to passion when he met and married Charmian Kittredge, the love of his life. Despite his adventurous past, London had never before met a woman like Charmian; she adored fornication and boxing, and willingly risked life and limb to sail and explore. She typed his manuscripts while he churned out novels, serving as his inspiration and his critic.

Lover, fighter, and onetime hobo, Jack London lived large and died before he was forty. This is a rare biography, from bestselling historian Alex Kershaw, that proves the truth can be more fascinating--and a far greater adventure--than a fiction.

Perfect for my son!
Color: Purple, Size: 7 Years, Color: Purple, Size: 7 Years
Loved that the pants were adjustable and it fit my son perfectly and was shipped fast for Halloween! This was cheaper than a Halloween costume but the quality was 10x better than any bulk Halloween costume store ! We did a DIY joker & I absolutely loved how it turned out ! Definitely could use this for a formal event !

Great 4 piece for a wedding!
Color: Black, Size: 12 Years
My so. Is 10 years old but super skinny and super tall. The pants had an adjustable waist which was perfect for me to adjust to his skinny waist. The length was perfect. The material was great and it was well made. The tie was super easy to put on and the vest has an adjustable band on the back. This was perfect for a wedding he was attending. He looked so handsome! Great price too.

Great suit order well ahead in case need resizing
It great! My son loves suitz , the only reason I took a star is because the pants were past his ankle very short so we ended up have to use other pants. The shirt and vest fitted perfectly!
