"This is the colorful and dramatic biography of two of America's most controversial entrepreneurs: Moses Louis Annenberg, 'the racing wire king, ' who built his fortune in racketeering, invested it in publishing, and lost much of it in the biggest tax evasion case in United States history; and his son, Walter, launcher of TV Guide and Seventeen magazines and former ambassador to Great Britain."--Jacket.
JACK LONDON (1876-1916), American novelist, born in San Francisco, the son of an itinerant astrologer and a spiritualist mother. He grew up in poverty, scratching a living in various legal and illegal ways -robbing the oyster beds, working in a canning factory and a jute mill, serving aged 17 as a common sailor, and taking part in the Klondike gold rush of 1897. This various experience provided the material for his works, and made him a socialist. "The son of the Wolf" (1900), the first of his collections of tales, is based upon life in the Far North, as is the book that brought him recognition, "The Call of the Wild" (1903), which tells the story of the dog Buck, who, after his master ́s death, is lured back to the primitive world to lead a wolf pack. Many other tales of struggle, travel, and adventure followed, including "The Sea-Wolf" (1904), "White Fang" (1906), "South Sea Tales" (1911), and "Jerry of the South Seas" (1917). One of London ́s most interesting novels is the semi-autobiographical "Martin Eden" (1909). He also wrote socialist treatises, autobiographical essays, and a good deal of journalism.
The Key to Triumphant Living Written nearly four decades ago, the story of this book has never been more relevant. The Key to Triumphant Living is the personal testimony of a man who had accomplished all that his system said would bring fulfillment, yet he found himself empty. The testimony of Jack Taylor will speak to every Christian heart, but it is more than the personal testimony of one man. It is the testimony of a church, and a community who witnessed a genuine move of God. The experience shared in this book of corporate revival and personal renewal through an emphasis on the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit will provide encouragement for all who read it. There is a key to living triumphantly and it is "Christ in you, the hope of glory!" This latest edition remembers the move of God experienced in 1970's at Castle Hills First Baptist Church in San Antonio, Texas and represents the passing of the legacy to a new generation and the prayer that the Lord would do it again!

After almost seventeen years aspastor in San Antonio, Texas, where God moved in revival to usher into the Kingdom over 2000 people in a matter of months; Jack Taylor pursued an itinerant ministry which has lasted for over forty years. He preaches the Gospel of the Kingdom around the world through his books, recorded messages and speaking engagements. Jack is president of Dimensions Ministries and the spiritual father to hundreds connected to him through Sonslink, a spiritual sons connection.
