South Sea Tales

By: Jack London

Narrated by: Lloyd James

Most readers are familiar with Jack London's stories of the frozen northland, such as White Fang and To Light a Fire, but many critics feel he should be equally acknowledged for his fascinating stories of the South Pacific. Here is another remote corner of the world, a background for his magnificently colorful and entertaining Tales of the South Pacific. London is able to pierce the stereotype of his era concerning the "Noble Savage" and present the people who lived on these exotic islands as individuals who had to deal with the white man's intrusions, the racism, foreign diseases, biased legal systems, and brutality. These stories are based on the themes Jack London considered most important: race, culture, justice, and heroism.©1909

always a good story from Jack London,

really enjoyed the perspective of the story a little dated in terms of language but still a great collection of stories

Awesome

One of the best from Jack London - 5 Stars ! Great reading by Lloyd James too !!!

Good Stories

Reminiscent of preliterate story tradition. Felt like I was there in the old South Seas. Not recommended for impressionable readers for frequent use of the N word.

Bloody riot lol! Brilliant!

Mr. London is well known for his stories of the frigid north but I tell you no one can spin a sailor’s yarn like Jack London! I enjoyed these stories immensely, the narration is absolutely brilliant, spot on, five enthusiastic stars!

Wonderful

Never knew that this existed. Loved it and learned a lot about the souths seas🤗
