Produktinformationen zu „Jack London (ePub)“

Nothing in Jack London's life was unequivocal. He was a self-taught man whose lack of formal education gave him no coherent structure for his views. His convictions as a socialist were constantly at war with his frontier individualism; his proclivities as a carouser belied his lofty principles. He empathized with underdogs ranging from Mexicans and lepers to the African-American boxer Jack Johnson, but he uncritically accepted California prejudices about Asian immigration and "the yellow peril." Here, in this essay by award-winning journalist Robert Wernick, the story of America's first working-class writer.

Autoren-Porträt von ROBERT WERNICK

Salvador Dali once called him the stupidest man in the world; Cary Grant described him as the smartest. New York Times bestselling author Robert Wernick is certainly talented. He has penned more than a dozen books and has contributed to a host of magazines, ranging from Life to Vanity Fair. His topics are as varied as the birth of town planning in the Mesolithic Age to a soul-baring Ferris-wheel ride with Marilyn Monroe to a climb up Mount Sinai.
