The Sea Wolf is Jack London s powerful and gripping saga of Humphrey Van Weyden captured by a
seal-hunting ship and now an unwilling sailor under its dreaded captain Wolf Larsen. The men
who sailed with Larsen were treacherous outcasts but the captain himself was the legendary Sea
Wolf a violent brute of a man. Jack London was a worshipper of the strong and virtuous hero
and a firm believer in the inevitable triumph of good. The master storyteller nowhere
demonstrates this theme more vividly than in this classic American tale of peril and adventure
good and evil.
