Jack London was an American author,journalist and social activist.He was a pioneer in the then-burgeoning world of commercial magazine fiction and was one of the first fiction writers to obtain worldwide celebrity and a large fortune from his fiction alone.Some of his most famous works include The Call of the Wild and White Fang, both set in the Klondike Gold Rush, as well as the short stories "To Build a Fire", "An Odyssey of the North", and "Love of Life". He also wrote of the South Pacific in such stories as "The Pearls of Parlay" and "The Heathen", and of the San Francisco Bay area in The Sea Wolf. Jack London's mother, Flora Wellman, was the fifth and youngest child of Pennsylvania Canal builder Marshall Wellman and his first wife, Eleanor Garrett Jones. Marshall Wellman was descended from Thomas Wellman, an early Puritan settler in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.Flora left Ohio and moved to the Pacific coast when her father remarried after her mother died. In San Francisco, Flora worked as a music teacher and spiritualist claiming to channel the spirit of an Indian chief.
1) 1987г 2) Nirvana is an American rock band formed by vocalist and guitarist Kurt Cobain and bassist Krist Novoselic in Aberdeen, Washington in 1987. Several drummers were replaced in the band; drummer Dave Grohl, who joined Cobain and Novoselic in 1990, played the longest with the band. 3)Famous musicians sometimes try on the image of Cobain at concerts. Make covers, dedicate songs. The way modern rock looks now is influenced by the Seattle trio of guys that excite the minds of millions of people around the globe. And for at least a few more decades, the memory of the band will not fade. What Kurt expressed decades ago is still relevant today. Music continues to be sold as a commodity of public consumption and money goes into the pockets of greedy producers. The voice of a great, sincere musician.
