Soft Cover. Condition: F - Fine. Nantier, Bell, Minoustchine 1983. Book condition: F - Fine. Full Colour illustrations. The protagonist of this tale, actually, is not the 18 year old Corto, but Rasputin, a deserter from a Siberian rifle regiment, and the writer Jack London, who was a war correspondent in the region at that time. Jack London is already friends with Corto and introduces the sailor to the unpredictable Russian, who even as a young man kills with disconcerting ease and is ready to lie and betray without hesitation. It is, however, "the beginning of a beautiful friendship" that continues throughout the series. As a bonus, the book includes additional material that sets up the entire series, as well as several never before published pages that Pratt intended for a continuation of the tale, in which Corto and Rasputin were to embark on a search for King Solomon's mines. 64 pages. Size: 8" x 11" (215mm x 280mm). ISBN: 091834848X. (0.25). Seller Inventory # CMEARLYYEARS
