Beskrivelse af The Call Of The Surf (1920)
The Call of the Surf is a novel written by Van Campen Heilner and published in 1920. The story takes place in the early 20th century in California, and follows the adventures of a young man named Jack London as he learns to surf and becomes enamored with the ocean. Jack is a skilled swimmer and sailor, but he has never surfed before. When he sees a group of surfers riding the waves, he is immediately drawn to the sport and decides to learn how to surf himself. Over the course of the novel, Jack becomes increasingly obsessed with surfing and spends all of his free time in the water. He develops close friendships with other surfers and becomes part of a tight-knit community. However, his love of surfing also creates tension with his family and his girlfriend, who do not understand his passion for the ocean. As Jack becomes more skilled at surfing, he begins to take on bigger and more dangerous waves. He also becomes involved in a rivalry with another surfer, which leads to a dramatic confrontation in the water. Along the way, Jack learns important lessons about courage, perseverance, and the power of nature.Overall, The Call of the Surf is a thrilling adventure novel that celebrates the beauty and excitement of surfing. It offers a vivid portrait of California's surf culture in the early 20th century, and explores themes of individualism, community, and the search for meaning in life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
