Editorial Reviews
Jack London
"You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club." --This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition.

Book Description
These seven stories are based on Jack London's youthful adventures as an oyster pirate. In the early 1900s, San Francisco Bay was plagued by oyster pirates who plundered in broad daylight. At sixteen, London's common sense suggested he change sides. "The restraining of a felony was more to his liking and logic than the committing," his wife said of him. "Surely it tickled his fancy too that the most lucrative employment in sight should be with the Fish Patrol service." Thus he joined the Fish Patrol. Catching the rascal pirates satisfied even London's appetite for adventure but more importantly gave us a record of these outlaw times captured by one of the world's greatest storytellers. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.
