John Griffith London (1876 - 1916), commonly known as Jack London, was an American journalist, social activist, and novelist. He was an early pioneer of commercial magazine fiction, becoming one of the first globally-famous celebrity writers who were able to earn a large amount of money from their writing. London is famous for his contributions to early science fiction and also notably belonged to 'The Crowd', a literary group an Francisco known for its radical members and ideas. He was also a staunch supporter of socialism and workers rights, which are the main topics of this 1905 essay. Other notable works by this author include: 'Martin Eden' (1909), 'The Kempton-Wace Letters' (1903), and 'The Call of the Wild' (1903). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
