Publisher Description: And the other was the tense man with steel in eye and jaw -- the Joe of the prize-fighting ring. And it was this part of him -- the one created with his own sweat and blood -- he was offering to lay down, for love of Genevieve. But only after one more chance -- one last fight Then he would never enter the ring again |
Contributor Bio(s): London, Jack: - "John Griffith "Jack" London (1876 - 1916) was an American novelist, journalist and social activist. A pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction, he was one of the first fiction writers to obtain worldwide celebrity and a large fortune from his fiction alone. Some of his most famous works include The Call of the Wild and White Fang, both set in the Klondike Gold Rush, as well as the short stories "To Build a Fire," "An Odyssey of the North" and "Love of Life." He also wrote of the South Pacific in such stories as "The Pearls of Parlay" and "The Heathen," and of the San Francisco Bay area in The Sea Wolf." |
