Sämtliche in der Klassiker-Reihe der ofd edition veröffentlichten Werke wurden aufwendig neu editiert und der aktuellen Rechtschreibung angepasst. Die bessere Lesbarkeit und übersichtlichere Gestaltung verhelfen zu einem ungetrübten Lesegenuss und zu einem deutlich besseren inhaltlichen Verständnis. Übersetzungen von Originaltexten wurden komplett überarbeitet, gegebenenfalls dem Ursprungstext angepasst und um fehlende Passagen ergänzt. Unter dem Eindruck einer mehr als zweijährigen Weltreise, die Jack London mit seiner Yacht "Snark" unternommen hatte, schrieb er eine Reihe von Romanen und Erzählungen, die von Abenteuern in der Südsee handeln. Ein zentrales Thema ist dabei häufig das Aufeinandertreffen Eingeborener mit weißen Männern. Im Jahr 1911 wurden acht dieser Geschichten, in denen es mal um Feindschaft, mal um Freundschaft geht, in dem Sammelband "Südsee-Geschichten" erstmals veröffentlicht. Hier finden sie eine deutsche Fassung der Texte, basierend auf der Übersetzung von Erwin Magnus.
Jack London was born January 12, 1876 in San Francisco. He lived an adventurous life. He worked as an oyster pirate, for the Bay Area fisheries police and on a seal catcher, he was traveling as a tramp and had to serve a prison sentence, as well as he was a Hobo. In 1896, after just three months of preparation, London passed the entrance examination of the University of Berkeley, where he studied for two years. He did not finish his studies because he had to take a job to feed his family. London began to become a writer in the mid-1890s and began to write, often inspired by his own experiences. In 1897, he was one of the first prospectors at the Klondyke River. Influenced by these experiences, the short story "The White Silence" was written. The breakthrough came with the story "An Odyssey of the North," which appeared in 1900, and earned him a number of other orders. In the following years London not only wrote a total of 27 novels, but also numerous essays, often political content, dramas, reports and short stories. Jack London died on November 22, 1916 on his farm in Glen Ellen, California.
