DOWNLOAD EBOOKAfter a ferry accident on San Francisco Bay, literary critic Humphrey Van Weyden is swept out to sea only to be rescued by the seal-hunting schooner Ghost. Wolf Larsen, the captain of the Ghost, is brutal and cynical but also highly intelligent, and he has no intention of returning Van Weyden to shore. Van Weyden is forced to serve on the Ghost, leaving behind his comfortable world ashore and entering into a psychological battle with Larsen on the sea. Jack London wrote The Sea-Wolf in 1904 following the success of his previous novel The Call of the Wild, and it has gone on to become one of his most popular novels. London actually served on a sealing schooner during his early career and that experience lends a gritty realism to his depiction of life at sea. The book can be read as a psychological thriller and adventure novel, but can also be read as a criticism of Nietzsche’s Übermensch philosophy with Wolf Larsen embodying a “superman” lacking conventional morality.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Sea Wolf:Annotated by Jack London The Sea Wolf is Jack London's powerful and engrossing saga of Humphrey Van Weyden, kidnapped by a seal-hunting ship and now an unwilling sailor under the command of its dreaded captain, Wolf Larsen. The men who sailed with Larsen were shady outcasts, but the captain was the legendary Sea Wolf-a violent brute of a man.Jack London was a devotee of the heroic and virtuous hero, and a firm believer in the inevitability of good triumphing over evil. This theme is illustrated most vividly by the master storyteller in this classic American tale of peril and adventure, good and evil. This book includes an author biography as well as a table of contents that is linked to each chapter (Kindle edition). We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high-quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Sea-Wolf is a 1904 psychological adventure novel by American novelist Jack London about a literary critic, survivor of an ocean collision, who comes under the dominance of Wolf Larsen, the powerful and amoral sea captain who rescues him. Its first printing of forty thousand copies was immediately sold out before publication on the strength of London's previous The Call of the Wild. Ambrose Bierce wrote, "The great thing—and it is among the greatest of things—is that tremendous creation, Wolf Larsen... the hewing out and setting up of such a figure is enough for a man to do in one lifetime... The love element, with its absurd suppressions, and impossible proprieties, is awful."
