The Strength of the Strong - Jack London - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Strength of the Strong - Jack London - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Strength of the Strong (1914) is a collection of short stories by American writer Jack London. Written and published when London was at the height of his success as an author, the stories that make up The Strength of the Strong engage with themes inspired by his lifelong advocacy of socialism. In the collection, London explores—through science fiction, naturalism, and historical narratives—the consequences of capitalism on human life, the nuances of geopolitical power, and the importance of the labor movement. In “The Strength of the Strong,” a parable, a prehistoric elder named Long-Beard speaks to a gathering of his fellow hunters. As they sit around a fire eating the remains of a wild bear carcass, Long-Beard tells the story of their people. He recalls how their society developed to promote individualism and hierarchy, and how conflict with other tribes and a lack of shared resources led to the breakdown of the community. “South of the Slot” is the story of Freddie Drummond, a sociology professor at Berkeley who leads a secret double life as a powerful union organizer named Big Bill Totts. As Totts’s influence in the labor movement grows, it becomes more and more difficult for Drummond to separate his identities and to keep his union work hidden from his fiancé, the wealthy aristocrat Catherine van Vorst. In “The Unparalleled Invasion,” a work of speculative fiction, London illustrates a future where China—which has risen to control all of Asia—is attacked with biological weapons by a combined force of Western powers. The Strength of the Strong is a collection of stories addressing issues of race, class, power, and violence from a master of science fiction and literary naturalism. This edition of Jack London’s The Strength of the Strong is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers. Since our inception in 2020, Mint Editions has kept sustainability and innovation at the forefront of our mission. Each and every Mint Edition title gets a fresh, professionally typeset manuscript and a dazzling new cover, all while maintaining the integrity of the original book. With thousands of titles in our collection, we aim to spotlight diverse public domain works to help them find modern audiences.

The Titan - Theodore Dreiser - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Titan - Theodore Dreiser - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Titan (1914) is a novel by Theodore Dreiser. The second installment of Dreiser’s Trilogy of Desire , The Financier has endured as a classic of naturalist fiction and remains a powerful example of social critique over a century after its publication. Preceded by The Financier (1914) and followed by The Stoic (1947), The Titan captures the greed at the heart of the Gilded Age, a time when tycoons rose with total impunity to take over swaths of American industry. Based on the life of Charles Yerkes, an influential businessman who funded the development of railway systems in Chicago and London, The Titan is a masterpiece of twentieth century American literature that continues to resonate today. Following his release from prison, Frank Cowperwood exploits the recent Panic of 1873 to purchase stocks at a reduced price, turning a profit and becoming a millionaire once more. Unable to remain in his native Philadelphia, however, he moves to Chicago with his young lover, secures a divorce with his estranged wife, and sets his sights on a failing street-railway system. Elbowing competitors out of the way, Cowperwood takes control of Chicago’s burgeoning transit system and reaches new heights as a man of means. When news of his past becomes known to the local elite, he becomes a pariah at social gatherings. Slowly but surely, his grip on the city of Chicago begins to loosen, as does the strength of his marriage. Wracked by doubt, brought down by his lustful ways, Cowperwood begins to question the trajectory of his ambitious life. The Titan is a story of romance, greed, and betrayal that says as much about a single man as it does about the values of an entire society. This edition of Theodore Dreiser’s The Titan is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Magnolia Leaves - Mary Weston Fordham - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

Magnolia Leaves - Mary Weston Fordham - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

Magnolia Leaves (1897) is a collection of poems by Mary Weston Fordham. Published toward the end of her life, Fordham’s only collection appeared in print with an introduction by Booker T. Washington, who saw in its author an undeniable gift which could prove “[t]he Negro’s right to be considered worthy of recognition in the field of poetic effort.” Meditating on such themes as morality, labor, maternity, liberty, and faith, Mary Weston Fordham displays not only a mastery of poetic form, but a hard-earned wisdom and talent for observing life in all its forms. “With hands all reddened and sore, / With back and shoulders low bent, / She stands all day, and part of the night / Till her strength is well-nigh spent.” In “The Washerwoman,” Fordham depicts a woman whose life on earth revolves around labor, for whom life after death means the promise of hard-earned rest, to “be found on the other shore.” While many, if not all, of Fordham’s poems revolve around Christian imagery and themes, some, including “Chicago Exposition Ode,” “Stars and Stripes,” and “Alaska,” reflect on the promise of freedom and liberty in the aftermath of the Civil War. Her poems strive to depict the diversity of nineteenth century America, such as in “Atlanta Exposition Ode,” which celebrates the end of war and the coming together of former slaves, Union soldiers, and Confederate forces alike. “Song to Erin” and “Highland Mary” depict the immigrant experience, while “The Cherokee” mourns the murder and displacement of America’s indigenous peoples. In sixty-six poems, Mary Weston Fordham distils the experience of a lifetime and the wisdom of one who has experienced loss and found the strength to move forward.

Connecting the origin story of Hawaii to the traditions of other Polynesian cultures, Westervelt provides an invaluable resource for understanding the historical and geographical scope of Hawaiian culture. Beginning with the origin story of Pele, the goddess of volcanoes, Westervelt introduces his groundbreaking collection of legends on the volcanic nature of the Hawaiian Islands.

Having traveled across the limitless ocean, her name was already known far and wide, along with her reputation for strength, anger, and envy. Establishing herself within the crater of Kilauea, Pele quickly took command over the gods, ghost-gods, and the people inhabiting the islands.

The Three Impostors - Arthur Machen - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Three Impostors - Arthur Machen - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Three Impostors (1895) is a novel by Arthur Machen. Consisting of interwoven stories involving the title characters, The Three Impostors was compared to the prose style of Robert Louis Stevenson on publication. Condemned as decadent and obscene upon publication, Machen’s writing earned praise from Oscar Wilde and H. P. Lovecraft. Throughout the years, Machen’s work has been referenced and adapted by such figures as Stephen King, Guillermo del Toro, and Josh Malerman for its masterfully unsettling blend of science, myth, and magic. Inspired by his knowledge of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, which was undergoing a controversial conflict involving Irish poet W. B. Yeats and English mystic Aleister Crowley at the time, Machen crafts a layered tale of suspense and secrecy that continues to entertain and surprise over a century after its release. In London, a secret society of occultists gains strength through mutual disdain of modern life and Victorian social conventions. Three impostors gifted in the art of deceit do their best to disrupt city life while embarking on a quest for an Imperial Roman coin with a salacious history. The Three Impostors is a kaleidoscopic novel concerned with the horrors ever present on the outskirts of daily life, waiting to make themselves known. This edition of Arthur Machen’s The Three Impostors is a classic of British horror fiction reimagined for modern readers.

The Haunted Woman - David Lindsay - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Haunted Woman - David Lindsay - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Haunted Woman (1922) is a fantasy novel by David Lindsay. Following the commercial failure of his critically acclaimed novel A Voyage to Arcturus (1920), Lindsay hoped to achieve financial stability with a more conventional tale of suspense and the occult. Although he once more failed to reach a popular audience, Lindsay produced a powerful story of alternate worlds, the burden of convention, and the nature of human desire. “Never self-conscious, never embarrassed, always quiet and rather ennuyé, she fascinated by the very strength of her silence, which, it was abundantly clear, had nothing in common with stupidity. She had already declined three offers of marriage, before Marshall had appeared on her horizon.” Isbel Loment has always cherished her independence, never consenting to tie her fate to that of a man, especially not for love. Now engaged to successful underwriter Marshall Stokes, she finds herself nearing the end of the rootless lifestyle she has led since the age of sixteen, when the death of her father left her a ward of an eccentric aunt. While on vacation at an ancient estate in the hills of Sussex, Isbel discovers a mysterious staircase leading to three identical doors. Choosing one, she is transported to a mirror world where, though the details are lost upon leaving, she seems to be encountering her host Henry Judge.

The White Wampum - E. Pauline Johnson - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The White Wampum - E. Pauline Johnson - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The White Wampum (1895) is the debut poetry collection of E. Pauline Johnson. Originally published in London, The White Wampum launched her career as one of Canada’s most distinguished artists. Revered as one the foremost indigenous poets of her time, Johnson was a prolific writer whose works explored her Mohawk heritage while shedding light on the racism and persecution faced by indigenous peoples across North America. The White Wampum captures Johnson’s range as a poet in tune with the Romantic tradition without erasing her dualistic sense of identity as a woman of Mohawk and English heritage. Choosing to emphasize the former, Johnson, who also went by Tekahionwake, her great-grandfather’s name, adopts the persona of a Mohawk wife devoted to her husband, a powerful warrior: “I am Ojistoh, I am she, the wife / Of him whose name breathes bravery and life / And courage to the tribe that calls him chief. / I am Ojistoh, his white star, and he / Is land, and lake, and sky—and soul to me.” When members of the rival Huron tribe capture Ojistoh, their plan for retribution fails to account for her own strength and willpower. Outnumbered and unarmed, she remains certain she will return to her husband alive. In “The Camper,” Johnson invokes the beauty and simplicity of life on the plains, erasing for a moment all distinction between man and god, heaven and earth: “Night neath the northern skies, lone, black, and grim: / Nought but the starlight lies twixt heaven, and him. / Of man no need has he, of God, no prayer; / He and his Deity are brothers there.” This edition of E. Pauline Johnson’s The White Wampum is a classic of Canadian literature reimagined for modern readers.

Blood and Sand - Vincente Blasco Ibanez - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

Blood and Sand - Vincente Blasco Ibanez - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

Blood and Sand (1908) is a novel by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez. Published at the height of his career as a popular Spanish author, Blood and Sand was adapted into a 1916 silent film by the author himself and was remade three times, in 1922, 1941, and 1989. Predating Ernest Hemingway’s celebrated depictions of bullfighting by over a decade, Blasco Ibáñez’s novel remains an essential work of literature portraying one of Spain’s oldest and most controversial traditions. “Scarcely had the second bull appeared when Gallardo, by his activity and his desire to shine, seemed to fill the whole plaza. His cape was ever near the bull''s nose. A picador of his cuadrilla, the one called Potaje, was thrown from his horse and lay unprotected near the horns, but the maestro, grabbing the beast''s tail, pulled with herculean strength and made him turn till the horseman was safe. The public applauded, wild with enthusiasm.” Born into poverty, Juan Gallardo knows what it means to struggle and survive. From the streets of Spain, he rises to become one of the nation’s greatest bullfighters, a man for whom danger is merely an opportunity to showcase his talent. As lovers and fans flock to his side, Juan learns a new kind of danger, one with far more uncertain consequences than those he faces as a torero. With stunning depictions of the bullfighting ring and stirring evocations of urban life in Madrid and Seville, Blood and Sand is a masterpiece of twentieth century literature. This edition of Vicente Blasco Ibáñez’s Blood and Sand is a classic of Spanish literature reimagined for modern readers.

Vice Versa - Thomas Anstey Guthrie - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

Vice Versa - Thomas Anstey Guthrie - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

Vice Versa (1882) is a comic novel by Thomas Anstey Guthrie. Guthrie’s debut novel was a popular success, earning him a reputation as a leading humorist of his time. Adapted several times for film, theater, and radio, the novel inspired Mary Rodgers’ beloved Freaky Friday (1972) and is referenced in such wide-ranging works as C. S. Lewis’ That Hideous Strength , James Joyce’s Ulysses , and Malcolm Lowry’s Under the Volcano. As holidays draw to a close, Dick prepares to return to boarding school. Dreading the inevitable encounter with harsh headmaster Dr. Grimstone, he shows obvious signs of trepidation as he packs his luggage to leave. Watching from the doorway, his father, businessman Paul Bultitude, attempts to console his son. He encourages him to enjoy his time at school, warning that life gets much more tiresome as one ages. Nevertheless, Dick remains morose throughout the day. At the last minute, the boy asks if he can take with him the stone brought back by his uncle from India. Hesitant at first, Mr. Bultitude goes to fetch it, failing to realize its potent magical properties. Struggling to convince Dick to leave, he admits that his only wish in life would be to live as a boy once more. Just then, the magic of the stone takes hold, transforming Mr. Bultitude into a child the same age as his son. Terrified, he begs Dick—now doubled over with laughter—to change him back. But the boy senses a once in a lifetime opportunity and wishes on the stone to become a middle-aged man. As they navigate one another’s daily lives, father and son gain a deeper understanding of one another’s fears, dreams, and desires, all while desperately attempting to keep their transformations secret.

The Invasion of 1910 - William Le Queux - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Invasion of 1910 - William Le Queux - Bog - Mint Editions - Plusbog.dk

The Invasion of 1910 (1906) is a novel by Anglo-French writer William Le Queux. Published at the height of Le Queux’s career as a leading author of popular thrillers, The Invasion of 1910 is a story of espionage, resistance, and international conflict. Using his own research and experience as a journalist and adventurer, Le Queux crafts an accessible, entertaining world for readers in search of a literary escape. Known for his works of fiction and nonfiction on the possibility of Germany invading Britain—a paranoia common in the early twentieth century—William Le Queux also wrote dozens of thrillers and adventure novels for a dedicated public audience. Although critical acclaim eluded him, popular success made him one of England’s bestselling writers. In The Invasion of 1910 , a large German occupying force lands undetected on the coast of England. After quickly defeating a hastily assembled British defense in a battle at Royston, German forces turn toward London, eventually gaining control of half of the city. Woefully unprepared, terribly overwhelmed, a small group of English politicians gathers to form a resistance force capable of conducting guerrilla style attacks on the well trained, heavily armed Germans. As the light of hope returns to a beleaguered nation, a new British Army gathers strength in order to cast the invaders out for good. Originally published in the Daily Mail, Le Queux’s novel was both popular and controversial for its use of newspapermen dressed in German military uniforms to drum up sales. Despite being rejected as alarmist in its time, The Invasion of 1910 would prove prescient less than a decade after its publication with the outbreak of the First World War.
