The epic third adventure in the Blazing Bottom series - PERFECT for fans of The Dinosaur Who Pooped...
Rex Beach Livres
Rex Beach, autrefois célébré comme le « Victor Hugo du Nord », a écrit des romans d'aventure se déroulant sur fond de ruée vers l'or en Alaska. Ses œuvres, souvent inspirées par la corruption dont il fut témoin et les luttes des chercheurs d'or, mettaient en scène des hommes forts accomplissant des actes héroïques. Bien que certains critiques aient trouvé ses récits formulaires, les histoires de Beach sur le courage et la détermination ont largement résonné, conduisant à de nombreuses adaptations cinématographiques à succès.

A lucky strike by a pair of prospectors turns into a nightmare when crooked politicians attempt to steal their claim. Loaded with action and romance, this 1906 bestseller recaptures the excitement of the Gold Rush era, when thousands of prospectors headed to Alaska in hopes of finding riches. Miners, gamblers, and fortune-hunters of every description populate these pages, chasing their dreams among the rowdy camps and boom towns of the frozen north. Author Rex Beach, known as the Victor Hugo of the North, based this novel on a true series of events involving the theft of Yukon gold mines by corrupt politicians. Beach seasoned the dramatic tale with incidents from his own experiences prospecting for gold in Nome at the beginning of the twentieth century. Five different movie versions of The Spoilers include versions with John Wayne and Gary Cooper in the role of the rugged hero.
