About this audiobook
This edition includes the following editor's introduction: Jack London, an infinite passion for adventure that drove all his work
Published posthumously in 1919, “On the Makaloa Mat” is a collection of seven short stories and sketches by American author Jack London that creates a fascinating portrait of life on the picturesque Hawaiian Islands.
Brimming with vivid descriptions of the sea and forest, “On the Makaloa Mat” examine the lives of an array of characters and the effect upon them of their contact with Western civilization. These stories are all tales of love, family, or friendship, told against the background of Hawaiian history, customs, and lore.
"On the Makaloa Mat" contains some of the last stories London wrote before his death that are considered his best stories overall, such as "Shin Bones" and "The Water Baby."
