Le strade dell'uomo. E-book. Formato EPUB Jack London - Contrasto, 2020 -
Le strade dell’uomo, a cura di Alessia Tagliaventi, presenta un’ampia selezione delle sue fotografie, accompagnate da brani tratti da alcuni dei suoi capolavori di narrativa e giornalismo: tappe fondamentali in cui Jack London diventa testimone di grandi eventi del suo tempo, vicende i cui contorni si ampliano e fanno capolino dai documenti umani de Il popolo dell’abisso di Londra, della guerra russo-giapponese, del terremoto di San Francisco e dell’incredibile viaggio dello Snark. London è dunque autore anche delle fotografie di questo libro, che presenta per la prima volta in Italia un'ampia selezione delle sue straordinarie immagini.
