Free Speech Press is delighted to announce the 100th anniversary special edition republication of Jack London's book The Mutiny of the Elsinore. Jack London is one of America's and the world's most beloved authors. He penned some of the most-loved and read novels ever, such as Call of the Wild, White Fang, Sea Wolf and other books read and loved by people all over the world. One of his last novels, The Mutiny of the Elsinore is, at first glance, a gripping work of fiction telling the story of some passengers on a turn-of-the twentieth century clipper ship caught up in a raucous crew rebellion while at sea. The rebellion is suppressed, with one of the passengers-and the hero of the story-playing a leading role in saving the day. In truth the book is the epitome of his evolving view of both Nature and the realities of Mankind. Underneath this exciting storyline, this book actually contained one of London's most deeply meaningful allegories that he ever dared put in print with his own name. Written only a short while after he had formally resigned from the Socialist party in America, this work revealed that London had realized that his well-meant humanism and sympathy for the underdog had been cruelly exploited by a racially supremacist, Jewish tribal elite, and diverted to an end which had nothing to do with uplifting humanity. This novel also inspires us with story of a man's ability to find the courage and will in his own soul that enables him to prevail even though he initially thought he would never have had the ability to do so. This new, hardcover, 100th year anniversary special version is a superb hardback, full color, dust-jacket edition, and contains a unique introduction by Dr. David Duke, Ph.D., in which the full meaning and context of the work is spelled out. Normal retail price $29.95. Now on special offer at just $24.95.

John Griffith "Jack" London (born John Griffith Chaney,January 12, 1876 – November 22, 1916)was an American novelist, journalist, and social activist. A pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction, he was one of the first fiction writers to obtain worldwide celebrity and a large fortune from his fiction alone. Some of his most famous works include The Call of the Wild and White Fang, both set in the Klondike Gold Rush, as well as the short stories "To Build a Fire", "An Odyssey of the North", and "Love of Life". He also wrote of the South Pacific in such stories as "The Pearls of Parlay" and "The Heathen", and of the San Francisco Bay area in The Sea Wolf. London was part of the radical literary group "The Crowd" in San Francisco and a passionate advocate of unionization, socialism, and the rights of workers. He wrote several powerful works dealing with these topics, such as his dystopian novel The Iron Heel, his non-fiction exposé The People of the Abyss, and The War of the Classes
