Overview

Pat Glendon is a young man who has never drank alcohol nor tasted tobacco. He is a nature-lover with a phobia of cities and talking to women. He is also the perfect fighter. After prize-fighter manager Sam Stubener takes Pat under his wing, the two set off to San Francisco to take on the world heavy-weight champion. "The Abysmal Brute" is a thrilling tale of romance and social drama told by on of America's greatest story-tellers, detailing Pats unstoppable pugilistic crusade that sees him fight for the heart of a lovely admirer and expose the rampant corruption within the world of professional boxing. John Griffith "Jack" London (1876 - 1916) was an American author, journalist, and social activist, most remember for his novels "The Call of the Wild", "White Fang", "The Sea-Wolf", "The Iron Heel", and "Martin Eden". Originally published in 1913, we are proud to reprint this classic text, complete with a new biography of the author.
