In his youth he was a boundlessly energetic adventurer on the bustling West Coast--by turns playing the role of hobo, sailor, prospector, and oyster pirate. He spent his brief life rapidly accumulating the experiences that would inform his acclaimed, best-selling books: \u003ci\u003eThe Call of the Wild\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eWhite Fang\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Sea Wolf\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cp\u003e London was plagued by contradictions. He chronicled nature at its most savage, but wept helplessly at the deaths of his favorite animals. At his peak the highest-paid writer in America, he was nevertheless constantly broke. An irrepressibly optimistic crusader for social justice, he burned himself out at forty: sick, angry, and disillusioned, but leaving behind a voluminous literary legacy, much of it ripe for rediscovery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e In \u003ci\u003eWolf\u003c\/i\u003e, award-winning author James L. Haley explores the forgotten Jack London--at once a hard-living globetrotter and a man alive with ideas, whose passion for social justice roared until the day he died. Returning London to his proper place in the American pantheon, \u003ci\u003eWolf\u003c\/i\u003e resurrects a major American novelist in his full fire and glory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"Wolf: The Lives of Jack London | James L Haley | Hardcover | 9780465004782 | Used: Very Good | Biography 1759161 (temp: 10)","offer_id":49196902613144,"sku":"1759161","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/61DELxF5g0L.jpg?v=1780632306","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/wolf-the-lives-of-jack-london","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
