Yes Jack London a notable author, the place where he born is well known for "The Sea Wolf".
But that place (Brannar streets) faced many natural hazard during beginning of 20th century, yet he survived and became a famous writer and social activitist.
I read about him few days back, but his love for his dog "Rollo" never fargetable..
