The Sea-Wolf

Jack London's novel of survival on the Pacific coast

Author Jack London
ISBN 978-0486411088

London set much of this novel on the waters off the California coast, and the physical reality of that coastline — the fogs, the swells, the violence of the Pacific — is present throughout. It is an adventure story and a philosophical argument, and it reads like someone who knew the sea rather than imagined it.
