Meer over het boek

Surviving as a hobo in late-nineteenth century North America is vividly depicted through Jack London's firsthand experiences of train hopping, evading authorities, and navigating life on the margins. This collection of essays and tales not only showcases his storytelling prowess but also reflects his deep compassion for society's underdogs. With a blend of humor and heartbreak, it offers a compelling glimpse into a forgotten chapter of American life, shaped by London's own transformative journey before he became a renowned author.
