4.0 out of 5 stars
Everything a boy could want.,
By Ignatz Shmigelski (Cordova Alaska) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Son Of The Sun (Kindle Edition)
Jack London's tales of the south seas in this title provide everything a boy needs, action, adventure, deception, intrigue, fighting, drinking, trading, storms, and boats. This book follows a south seas trader as he manages his fleet and plies his trade, dealing with double crossers, native peoples, white traders, greed, and of course, the weather. Open this book and you are transported to a different time and place.Some of the language is archaic, and there is use of terms that are not longer smiled upon. Please remember that this book was written at a different time, and that they are just words. Some of the dialogue with the natives is in dialect, it is not important to know the exact meaning. Keep an open mind. If you are looking for some adventure, this is a good place to look
