Jack London, one of the most popular American writers, produced over 50 books of fiction and non-fiction during his lifetime. In 1906, without studying navigation, he and his wife Charmian with a small crew set out for Hawaii, hoping not to get lost. His misadventures at sea led him through native uprisings, The Doldrums and the then unknown sport of surfing. The Listen2Read American Adventure Library is a series of historic first-person accounts of extraordinary adventures by Americans or by visitors to America.
