Paperback: 7½" x 5". Condizione: Near Fine. 2012 Edition. © 1912: A stand-alone novel by Jack London. 1st printing of 2012 edition with an introduction by Matthew Battles. 1st in the 'Radium Age Science Fiction' series of books:- Synopsis: Outside the ruins of San Francisco, a former UC Berkeley professor recounts the chilling sequence of events - a gruesome pandemic which killed nearly every living soul on the planet, in a matter of days - which led to his current lowly state. Modern civilization has fallen, and a new race of barbarians, descended from the world's brutalized workers, has assumed power. Over the space of a few decades, all learning has been lost. The catastrophe happens in 2013; 2012 marks the centennial of the novel's first publication:- Review(s): "London's style is typically lush but his viewpoint is skeptical and dystopian. The story reminds us of the dangers we still court with our careless ways" - The Times, 1912 / "I knew Jack London was all about romanticizing nature and the frontier and primitive peoples and, you know, the wild.
