Lesson 18

About Jack London

London’s early years

John Griffith Chaney was born on January 12, 1876 in San Francisco. His parents – mother Flora Wellman and father – William Chaney who was a journalist, attorney and astrologer were never married. William Chaney was never a part of John’s life.

Flora Wellman ended up marrying a Civil War veteran – John London. He moved his new family to Oakland. The teen life of Jack London was hard — he worked on a sealing ship, shoveled coal, and was employed on a cannery. When he had free time, he spent it in the libraries reading travel books and novels.
