The Cruise of the Snark

This captivating tale of true adventures at sea takes readers aboard a 55-foot ketch whose small and intrepid crew crossed the Pacific in 1906. Master storyteller Jack London recounts with wry good humor the hardships of a two-year voyage aboard a diminutive and leaky craft. His vital, colorful narrative transcends stormy seas, illness, and navigational doubt for breathtaking accounts of the natural beauties of the South Pacific and warm praise for local hospitality. Enhanced with 119 original photographs, this lively account offers one of literature's best accounts of a sea voyage in a small boat.
