Jack London, one of my favorite authors, is presented in an unflattering role here, but he probably deserves it. One thing I learned long ago, is never read biographies of your favorite authors or movie stars. They will never again appear in your eyes as they once did.

That having been said, the authors have Kate and Charles Sheridan dealing with anarchists in this novel. Anarchists were very much in the public mind for a short period in this time of history. Fortunately, their time "in the sun" was even shorter than that of the real American cowboy.
