"The Cruise of the Snark" by Jack London. 1913 1st edition, later printing; The Macmillan Company; New York. The book features a color frontispiece and black & white photographs throughout. Gilt top edge.
THE CRUISE OF THE SNARK
In 1906 Jack London, author of The Call of the Wild and The Sea Wolf, decided to set out on a grand adventure of his own: a seven year, round-the world cruise aboard the Snark, a 43-foot ketch custom built for the voyage. This book tells the story of the building of the Snark and of the voyage itself, undertaken with his wife Charmian and a small crew. Though the Snark had a tendency to leak and London struggled with the mysteries of navigation, the crew gamely set sail for the South Seas. In Hawaii London tried surfing and became one of the first Americans to write about the "royal" sport. As they sailed from the Marquesas to the Solomons to Bora Bora the crew of the Snark encountered adventure, beauty, and the welcoming spirit of the islanders -- as well as the occasional eccentric like the "Nature Man," who lived a vagabond life in paradise. Though the trip was cut short by London's sudden illness, The Cruise of the Snark is an engaging adventure tale by a master of the genre. Originally published in 1911 this sweet, delightful book is armchair travel at its best.
Condition:
Light soiling to the covers and spine; chipping of front cover illustration along the top and long edges; tiny cloth tears at the corner tips; light fraying to the top and bottom edges of the spine. Tight binding. Crack at rear hinge between the end papers and at front hinge before the half title page. Name written in pen at the top edge of the half title page. The text pages are in very good condition - clean with only an occasion light ink smudge or stain; no writing or foxing found.

The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.
