The Turtles of Tasman

This is one of Jack London's lesser known short story collections. Five of the stories take place in northern California, two in the Klondike, and one in an undisclosed location during the paleolithic era. London is primarily famous as an author of wilderness adventure tales and of stories imbued with socialist political ideas. - By the Turtles of Tasman - The Eternity of Forms - Told in the Drooling Ward - The Hobo and the Fairy - The Prodigal Father - The First Poet - Finis - The End of the Story
