Kartoniert, 388 Seiten, 216mm x 140mm x 23mm, Sprache(n): eng He awoke in the dark. His awakening was simple, easy, without movement save for the eyes that opened and made him aware of darkness. Unlike most, who must feel and grope and listen to, and contact with, the world about them, he knew himself on the moment of awakening, instantly identifying himself in time and place and personality. After the lapsed hours of sleep he took up, without effort, the interrupted tale of his days. He knew himself to be Dick Forrest, the master of broad acres, who had fallen asleep hours before after drowsily putting a match between the pages of "Road Town" and pressing off the electric reading lamp. Near at hand there was the ripple and gurgle of some sleepy fountain. From far off, so faint and far that only a keen ear could catch, he heard a sound that made him smile with pleasure. He knew it for the distant, throaty bawl of King Polo-King Polo, his champion Short Horn bull, thrice Grand Champion also of all bulls at Sacramento at the California State Fairs. The smile was slow in easing from Dick Forrest's face, for he dwelt a moment on the new triumphs he had destined that year for King Polo on the Eastern livestock circuits.John Griffith Chaney, better known as Jack London (12 January 1876-22 November 1916), was an American author who pioneered the art of commercial fiction, which made him a prominent figure of the international literary arena. As a part of the radical literary group, 'The Crowd, ' London projected his socialist ideas through his works. Known as a rebel in his teens, London also spent 30 days in jail for vagrancy. The experience of imprisonment motivated him to attend college to become a writer. Versandkostenfreie Lieferung<
