Product Description
Jack London (1876-1916), was an American author and a pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction. He was one of the first Americans to make a lucrative career exclusively from writing. London was self-educated. He taught himself in the public library, mainly just by reading books. In 1898, he began struggling seriously to break into print, a struggle memorably described in his novel, Martin Eden (1909). Jack London was fortunate in the timing of his writing career. He started just as new printing technologies enabled lower-cost production of magazines. This resulted in a boom in popular magazines aimed at a wide public, and a strong market for short fiction. In 1900, he made $2,500 in writing, the equivalent of about $75,000 today. His career was well under way. Among his famous works are: Children of the Frost (1902), The Call of the Wild (1903), The Sea Wolf (1904), The Game (1905), White Fang (1906), The Road (1907), Before Adam (1907), Adventure (1911), and The Scarlet Plague (1912).

great daylight
burning daylight is a man of the wild, with a great sense of grandeur. when he does something, he wants to do it in a grand fashion. but he wants more. he wants to be part of a greater game, join an inner circle. a very interesting life story, but dwells at times. one of his best.

What a good woman can do to a bad man.
"Burning Daylight" was Jack London's best selling book during his lifetime, yet amazingly since his death, the book has been totally neglected except for an occassional reprint, and currently it is again out of print.The book begins as a two-fisted macho adventure on the Klondike,as the hero --nicknamed Burning Daylight -- becomes the most successfulentrepreneur during the Alaskan Gold Rush.However, after acheiving hisfame and fortune, he finds no more challenge in the north and heads to theStates for new worlds to conquer.But, first he is flim-flammed out of hisfortune by Wall Streeters.However, he learns the lesson of dog-eat-dogand becomes as much of a scoundrel as those who robbed him.He ventures toCalifornia and envisons the future success of Oakland, buys property, setsup utilities and public transportation systems through overbearing andshady tactics. He begins to drink, starts to go soft in the belly, loseshis good looks and vitality.And then, for the first time, he falls inlove.The last third of the book charmingly relates how a good woman turnsa now bad man around.It is a love story.A rousing adventure.A triesteon the ills of big business.All superbly written by Jack London.It'seasy to see why this book was so popular in London's day.If you can findit, read it.It will be time well spent. ...

Good
This is an excellent and well-written guide to salivary control. Excessive saliva is an embarrassing problem; my neighbours kids and their friends used to shout "Niagara Face" or "Beethoven" to me over my garden wall. To be fair to them, the drooling had got out of hand until I read Hilary Johnson's helpful book. The book loses a star, however, as it could have done with a sturdier waterproof jacket.

Good Book. Really Helped me Out!!!!
This book really helped me out. People sometime have a hard time understanding me because, in their words, I "Slurp" to much. Thanks to this practical guide people can understand me a little betterwhen I talk now. ... Read more
