OLD-TIME SAYING OF JACK LONDON'S FRIENDS:
"Jack's home is the real home." "Perhaps there is no place of its kind in the west that has attracted so many and such a variety of visitors as the Home That Jack Built.
'The latch string is always on the outside at the Beauty Ranch, and there are always blankets and grub for our friends. Come visit us, and stay as long as you like.' " |
| "It is dreadfully hard for me to get my friends to understand just what the ranch means to me... . From a utilitarian standpoint I hope to do two things with the ranch: (1) To leave the land better for my having been; (2) and to enable thirty or forty families to live happily on ground that was so impoverished that an average of three farmers went bankrupt on each of the five ranches I have run together." | ||
