Первый в истории американский писатель, заработавший своим трудом миллион долларов, Джек Лондон (1876—1916) черпал сюжеты из своего богатого опыта: он был уборщиком, рабочим на консервной фабрике, «устричным пиратом», матросом, кочегаром, золотоискателем и даже сидел в тюрьме за бродяжничество. Первые рассказы опубликовал в 23 года, работал по 15—17 часов в день. Его творчество необычайно обширно и…

Завораживающая история кузенов Френсиса и Генри Морганов, далеких потомков великого пиратского капитана, отправившихся…
