Publisher's Summary
Most readers are familiar with Jack London's stories of the frozen northland, such as White Fang and To Light a Fire, but many critics feel he should be equally acknowledged for his fascinating stories of the South Pacific. Here is another remote corner of the world, a background for his magnificently colorful and entertaining Tales of the South Pacific. London is able to pierce the stereotype of his era concerning the "Noble Savage" and present the people who lived on these exotic islands as individuals who had to deal with the white man's intrusions, the racism, foreign diseases, biased legal systems, and brutality. These stories are based on the themes Jack London considered most important: race, culture, justice, and heroism.

Brilliant Stories
I read an abridged version of White Fang as a child and still remember scenes from the book fifty years later, while many other books, even those read a few months ago, have faded from memory. I rediscovered Jack London's writing through this beautifully read audiobook and understood why. There is no other author that I have read who can portray a scene or situation with words of such beauty, clarity and depth that they are indelibly etched in one's memory.
